Default Any Ideas on Turning off the Spammer?

Great little freeware program. I use it, primarily for another forum
frequently plagued by abusive posts, for which one user has written
filter files that he shares with the group. I didn't bother with it
for this little incident, but if it continued, it would be easy for me
to add a filter based on the forums to which it was cross posted.
E.g., in the other forum I mentioned, filters used include cross posts
to a couple of unrelated forums that some of the abusers hit in
tandem, as well as any post crosss-posted to more than 4 forums.
