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=angelfire
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
