Hello!<br>
<br>
There&#39;re some wiki pages spammed by <a href=3D"http://mustuniversity.co=
m" target=3D"_blank">mustuniversity.com</a>, again :(<br>
<br>
E.g. <a href=3D"http://wiki.netbeans.org/NB61NewAndNoteWorthy" target=3D"_b=
lank">http://wiki.netbeans.org/NB61NewAndNoteWorthy</a> (look for changes).=
<br>
<br>
Is it possible to reject any edited site containing their spam links and to=
 disallow further access from the usr&#39;s account?<br>
<br>
Kind regards<br>
