    "Barbie" really wasn't a troll. A troll is a human being trying to stir up trouble.

    Barbie's a spambot, an automated program that exploits security holes in public bulletin boards. Most of the time, spambots are designed to drive traffic to websites in hopes that the traffic will increase the site's rank on search engines. They can sometimes lead to phishing sites or sites with malware.

    Solid explanation. I was just getting ready to ask but then saw you concisely answered my question. So my next question is, how did the "spambot" know to choose that avatar to go along with the screen name?

    My favorite is yahoo comment boards. Loaded with these "spambots".

    I'm plugging for a new reality TV series. It's called "the life of a troll", where tv cameras follow trolls to see what their days consist of. Also included will be people that invent computer viruses and malware. I think it would be a hit. I'm curious as to what these people do and/or have accomplished in their lives.

    From what I've read, their technology is amazing. They have even found a way to beat the "captcha" security method, the one that has an image of numbers and letters all squiggly and sideways, that only humans are supposed to be able to recognize. I've read that these bots can even carry on a conversation with each other to appear legitimate.

    Crap, was hoping no one would catch on that it was a bot post. I was enjoying the swooning over it beng a post from a supposed woman with a nice avatar, people agreeing/disagreeing over what was posted and then Geo's post made it golden.



    If you haven't googled the bots name yet let me say you will get some pretty racey results.

    Yep I knew it was a crock when I saw the avatar and no introduction like "hey everyone long time reader first time poster" kinda funny.....

    NO NEED for you here.

    Mr Fisher...There are several third world world countries on the planet that share your views and opinions but so far you and your ilk haven't managed to turn this country into one of those,if you believe in the American way of life you should at least show some civility toward its citizens.

    Barbie keep postin your comments, youve obviously got a few fans including myself--it didnt take you or me long to figure out that a few folks are simply blinded by their hate for obama--dont let them discourage you from expressing your views on this board anytime

    Re: An excellent lesson in wealth distribution

    Look.....I call it like it is........TROLL........first and probably only post..and it is on the off topic board.

    So yea, TROLL.

    Sorry, but I feel this is purely someone telling someone else to stir up crap here, if it is not already stirred up enough.

    Yea, it was out of line.......and for that I'm sorry.

    BUT I stand by my comments about coming on here just to stir the pot.

    Later,

    Geo
