The OP seems to have solved the problem. Hope he/she stops shouting.

Most of it seems to turn up in the Discussion forums, usually posted by a name I don't recognize, which acts as an indicator of unusual activity. Rick says it's also in the member galleries, which I do not visit.

The Mods seem to be doing a great job fighting back. 😁

I mark the ones I find, too. Combating spam is a 40-hour job !!

Welcome to the Forum. Currently we are receiving a lot of spam, so please be very careful regarding the links you follow.

Yet more today, all apparently emanating from McAfee

Grateful thanks to all dealing with this situation.

Spam postings are even getting into Members Albums now - surely there is some way of preventing this ? Is there not a period of time between joining and posting, to ensure this does not happen ? If not, why not ?

Is no-one monitoring the posts made by new members these days ?

Over the past few days, Spam has increased. I am reporting it whenever I see it - may I ask others to do the same ? It appears to be emanating from members who have recently joined, which may be a clue. Tony

Memo to self - check, then double check, which disk you have selected before hitting 'Format' !

Thank you very much ! Data recovery software now running - very slowly !

Apologies - major data issues, so no access to images. Please can some kind soul start this weeks' thread (or not, as the case may be !). Thanks. Tony.

Pardon my asking, but this image appears to originate here : https://www.alamy.com/person-picking-out-colorful-candies-displayed-at-ancient-jerusalem-city-image444009136.html Are you the original photographer, please ?
