Shout Box hack again, I think

[mnichols7]

When I went to my forum this morning I found this in the last 3 shouts of the shout box.Ã,  First, these are not members of my forum, so how was this done?Ã,  I have just now allowed guests to shout again, but as you can see it does not identify them as guest.Ã,  And of course, I cannot read any of it.Ã,  As far as I know it could be just plain gibbish.
Can anybody translate it or is it nothing but gibbish?Ã,  What can I do to prevent or correct this.

The link is a dead link, leads nowhere and froze my computer when clicking on it, so I was forced to do a hard boot.

I had installed the patch for the shout box so I was surprised when I saw this.

That's one of attempts to attack your site again, and nobody sure that they will not success in feature
So for carefully, please do not enable shoutbox with gues in this time

Yes, that is the first thing I did was to stop guest shouts.

I guess the patch worked and kept your site from being redirected.

It's best to disallow shouts to guess anyways. If you ever have a high traffic site, people will do nothing but advertise in your shoutbox.

So it would seem,

That's not a hack. It is nothing more sinsiter than spam. By not allowing guest shouts, it will stop them. If they register and do it, ban the IP address.

What confuses me on it, is that they changed the name from guest to whatever .... How was that done?

[TolerancE]

If a spam bot was used, they usually automatically generate that stuff. The names used are a dead giveaway that it was a generated bot.

One way could be to setup some sort of image verification for guest posting.
