Last week, some spam hit the Cincom Smalltalk Wiki - it's easy enough to restore the original pages, but I was afraid that I was looking down the same barrel that the UIUC wiki is - one of relentless, un-ending spam attacks.

However, a simple investtigation revealed a stupid problem I inflicted on myself - in the last patch I pushed up, I accidentally turned off the spam checker on the Wiki. After turning it back on, I started seeing failed attempts reported in my logs, from the same IP addresses that hit UIUC. I have to periodically update the filters, but things are back to normal. If you came to the site and saw spam last week, my apologies.
