Hi,
I've noticed the Freeola form_to_mail.php script is running slowly today.
It's been working fine since you guys added extra security to stop the spammers swamping it a while back - up until today.
I had been getting a few spam emails using the Freeola script over the last few weeks (not today though) so perhaps the idiots have started attacking it again?
They always provided the from address as [email protected] in the form.
A Google on this shows the address is used a lot by spammers!
They must be running the script remotely as I don't see their IP address visiting my sites when the message arrives.
Please let me know if you need any more info.
I remember you mentioned that you now have better control/monitoring in place, is it confirming a problem?

Sorry about that, a spammer was using a poorly secured script to send copious amounts of spam email, we spotted it and took it down (I thought before any customers noticed) and form mail should be back to normal.
