Launchpad itself

Suspected spamming account

Asked by Dougie Richardson

See bug #224971, the user name der74hva3 appears to be part of a page 302 exploit against the wiki. Every time we delete the malicious files, they reappear within a few minutes.

There is little that can be done with the exploit but we can remove the malicious code (a redirector) if this account is removed.

Thanks
