Anyone Else Getting Junk in Guestbook? Lately in the Guestbook of my BP website I've been getting gobbledygook comments which read like spam (removed six this week). Has anyone else?

i think bp has it's hands full. once safeguards are in place,a challenge. our own resident,who has a great talent,has a choice.so? I don't think shutting the closet door is the answer. not naive,just not quite an understanding. bp I think is doing pretty good.yet other (companies)hire,and pay a great deal to circumvent the rules.won't even be prosecuted in court.can't. just delete.
