I caught a comment spammer

I saw another spam comment.

I haven't gotten many of them. But I don't like them. And this time I remembered to check the owner of the logged IP address.

See, I figure this ain't no script kiddie spamming us. It's a business, with a fixed IP range.

And you know what?I was right. Not only do I find them, I get their name, address, phone number, ISP and abuse contact. I'm emailing [email protected] tonight. I suggest all of you that get spammed (even the conservatives!) spread the word. Get the logged IP and run it thru http://ws.arin.net/cgi-bin/whois.pl to get the information to turn they nasty asses in.
