FYI
I recently began getting spam to the e-mail address I registered for this forum. I use address protection so I know that it is specific to this forum. Obviously there must be some bot out there that can harvest e-mail addresses from forums.

My e-mail address was public, so I think that may be how it is able to get it.

There are lots of bots that attack phpBB2. Lots and lots of bots. And maybe some cheap human labor too.
