UPDATE 01/02/06

Hey guys! Just a note that we have updated the script with some custom code that will hopefully cut out the spam. If we continue to have issues, we have additional measures we can add, but they will be a bit annoying. Hopefully we don't have to go that route, so for now we'll see how it goes.

Special thanks to Neil for putting together the fix so fast. I literally sat at my PC this evening and sent him a message via MSN saying "We need to figure out what to do with topsites" and his response is a file send request with the update LOL! Thanks Neil!

Sorry for the inconvenience folks!

Hey all,

Just a quick note to say that topsites is currently down due to someone spamming it with a click proxy and basically ruining the system for everyone. I have no choice but to take it down until I get a chance to install counter measures (otherwise known as an anti-moron fix). Sorry guys... I'll fix it as soon as I can.

Otherwise, HAPPY NEW YEAR!
