is it just the case that someone posted spam on a subscribed thread of yours and the moderators have quickly deleted it?

looks like a deleted spam post to me too

Spam is quickly dealt with at TG. New members who join to post SPAM are also quickly dealt with.

Thanks Guys -I've been setting up Firefox & Thunderbird with gMail... and when they message rolled in with the first log-on, I figured I'd better report it (not realizing that you guys took care of stuff that quick)
(( now I look pretty bad for posting <sigh> Want me to edit it out? Or you can ))

Thanks for explaining (and taking care of) Tom

No worries Tom. You're right to be concerned about such postings and to report them.
Incidently, you can report a post simply by clicking the 'Report post' icon shown top-right of each post block. The icon look like this: http://www.talkgraphics.com/images/buttons/report.gif

Moderators receive the reported post notice allowing it to be dealt with by any mod' who is online at the time.
