Gotta love spammers

I mean, you guys found the time to spoof the referrer of my “recent visitors” page to insert your dirty links in there?
Wow, you must be quite desperate indeed.
I have now changed the code of the recent visitors plugin to add a rel=”nofollow” attribute to all hyperlinks, so that you won’t get any Google PageRank bonus no matter how many fake referrer links you put in there.
I suggest anybody with the same problem to do the same, what these guys do is spam as many sites as they can with links to their hosts, so that when GoogleBot crawls your pages it will give them a PageRank bonus and they will appear up in the search results.
The rel=”nofollow” attribute prevents this from happening.
