Hi, just had an email from a member saying he was banned from my forum. When I check the admin centre this account was indeed added to the BANNED group.

I've not changed anything recently and this user has posted recently so I'm at a loss to see how this was done. I'm the only mod and have under 30 members. Any idea as I'm a nice lost here not been using the software long so still learning.

The site is still v1.4.9 (1409)
Sorry found it - Automatically banned by the Akismet system for spamming.
