Hi.

I set an edit and an attribute password to your wiki and it is "quick".
This 
way they will hopefully stop the spam and you can, calmly, remove it.

Please follow this link to find which pages contain the word "angelfire":
  
http://www.ruthtrumpold.id.au/designtech/pmwiki.php?action=search&q=angelfir
e

Then, you open every linked page, then click on the "history" link, then 
on "restore" link, or just delete the page. That's it.


You may learn more about protecting your wiki, if you read these pages:

  http://www.pmwiki.org/wiki/PmWiki/Passwords
  http://www.pmwiki.org/wiki/PmWiki/PasswordsAdmin
  http://www.pmwiki.org/wiki/PmWiki/Security
  http://www.pmwiki.org/wiki/PmWiki/UrlApprovals
  http://www.pmwiki.org/wiki/PmWiki/Blocklist

You will find out how to unlock/change the current passwords also there.

Take it easy.
Petko
