			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p></p><p>ConservatoryLand have received 481 DIY conservatory enquiries in 17 hours, or so we thought.</p>
<p>It all started at 3pm yesterday afternoon and has continued and still continues to occur on the hour, every hour.</p>
<p>This is a real pain as we are having to sift through hundreds of emails to delete the spam that has been sent via our online contact form, which our spam filters do not recognise.</p>
<p>See screen shot below (click to enlarge).</p>
<p><a href="http://www.conservatorytalk.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/08/2009-08-20_1049.jpg" rel="lightbox[383]" title="ConservatoryLand Spam Attack"><img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-384" title="ConservatoryLand Spam Attack" src="http://www.conservatorytalk.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/08/2009-08-20_1049.jpg" alt="ConservatoryLand Spam Attack" width="716" height="434" /></a></p>
<p>We suffered a similar attack around 3 years ago which kept knocking out our site and got our domain blacklisted as a spammer domain which stopped our email.</p>
<p>However, we where then on a shared server and it was causing problems for other users. Nowadays, we fork out for a dedicated server so I&#8217;m hoping we don&#8217;t experience the same sort of problems before I have had chance to resolve the matter and make our response form more secure.</p>
<p>I can&#8217;t help wondering if this is a revenge attack for grassing Dean up with reference to my <a href="http://www.conservatorytalk.com/the-funniest-conservatory-blog-article">previous post</a> &#8211; only joking Dean <img src='http://www.conservatorytalk.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_smile.gif' alt=':)' class='wp-smiley' /> </p>
