I think you are a damned spammer, so go away!

If you think it's a spammer, then DON'T REPLY. You've just made it impossible for us to remove the post.

Congratulations - you've just helped the spammer.

it does not matter anymore. the big popular tools work on all systems. My windows setup is unix like including all the command line stuff like grep. Many unix setups are windows like. Anything can do anything these days.

Wrong, MikeyBoy. This particular spammer's account is resistant to being removed by reporting.

Already tried to report and remove the thread, and failed.

Now you also helped the spammer by your reply.

Can confirm FurryGuy's post; this neither helps nor hinders them.

Ah, OK. I don't know why that would happen.

Now you also helped the spammer by your reply.

That's simply untrue. Once one reply has been made to a spam thread, further replies make no difference whatsoever to whether people can delete it.
