It's not just guestbooks.  My wwwboards have recently been spammed from
multiple sources.  I'm being forced to look into authentication
mechanism to prevents these a'holes.  Why the heck can't they just leave
us alone?  My spam hasn't been casino-related yet, but I suppose it's
coming :-(.  wwwboard was also written by Matt Wright.

I haven't seen the guestbook application, but if it's automated tools
that are going after it, then a simple extra page requesting
confirmation might do the job to deter them.  That's just a hack of
course...

Good luck,
