Hi,
the bubbles component has been attacked by spam posts. I deleted them all from phpMyAdmin. My guess is that it was been attacked since there is no security code to be entered with this component.
I noticed that in the Admin pages there is the Elxis Defender and the Flood Blocker. I've never used them and was wondering wether I should enable them.
Is there something I should be aware of before I do? Will this stop such flooding spam messages?

thanks

Regarding Elxis Defender, of course you must enable it!

enabled it and still getting attacked.
Is there another component I could use as a guest book ?

this TopHost is causing so many problems. I wouldn't recommend them for an elxis site ever.
