    Thanks to Ian (Teasel) for sorting things out.

    It seems some nice spammers were somehow exploiting the script we use to let visitors send email to the committee.... and were sending out large numbers of emails to AOL members.

    As a result, our hosting service, LunarPages, took steps to stop it happening (by "Closing" our site&#33

    So, nothing cloak and dagger, nothing to do with the recent GAGB "elections", just your normal run-of-the-mill nasty spammers!!!!

    Well done to all involved. What a shame Lunarpages couldn't have just blocked the script rather than taking the heavy handed approach they did!
