I'm getting a ton of "Load web page ... aubreTEC Labs Black Widow ONLY L$1750" in the top right corner of my screen. I'm probably getting a message every one to two seconds - they're neverending!

Where are they coming from and how can I stop them?

I just got the message from Torley Linden, so I'm guessing that's what it was about...

I didn't... What did it say? I only ask because it'll be another 45 minutes at best before I can read about it on the blog or get an official statement in any other capacity, so...

I cleared it (and don't know if I can pull it back up), but it said something like "We are aware of the current spam problem and we're dealing with it. It's mostly under control, but we're still cleaning a few things up. Spam sucks!"

I want to state, unequivocally, that I had nothing to do with it, didn’t know about it until after, and still don’t know who did this, or why. I’m guessing it was some kind of odd reputation sabotage, and it worked.

I got 274 righteously pissed offline IMs on my mobile when I stepped out of a class. I had no idea what was going on. I'm still trying to figure it out, but whoever did it was trying to hurt me, not help me.
