    somehow someone is managing to post spam posts on some of my WPMU blogs, not all of them but 2 or 3, i dont know how they are doing it, i mean comment spam is bad enough but post spam is really, really annoying, i've just spent over an hour deleting all i can find only to find he has mnaged to post more on the first blog while i was deleting the rest!
    please let me know how i can stop the F****r

    Please give specifics as per the readme file included with your download:

    http://codex.wordpress.org/Debugging_WPMU

    - Does this person have an account on your mu install?

    - Are they accessing the main blog or a subblog within your install?

    - Can you check to see if they're logging on or doing this via xmlrpc.php?
