Spe-Le-Yai.org. It is a site for a Boy Scout / OA group. There are many sites like this in the OA, the names are Native American names. Here is a legitimate domain with more than one dash.

I have been a huge spam magnet for a while, since I had a lot of links to my site from b2evolution blogs when I was the support person listed in the default blogroll. I had come up with a few <a href="http://isaacschlueter.com/category/antispam" rel="nofollow">hacks and mods</a> to combat them, but it was a constant uphill battle. Since installing referer karma, I’ve been checking my logs every day, and I haven’t seen a single spammer get through the 403 shield. I love the look of your site, btw. Very elegant and classy. Referer Karma is great.

I’ll change the rules just for you if you do, of course, but I’m not the only one to have come up with this double-dash thing. Yeah, that’s probably a bad idea.

Maybe you could run a cron job to clear them out every so often… or just use filters when you’re viewing ‘em. What stats package(s) do you use? I’m thinking of installing <a href="http://unknowngenius.com/blog/wordpress/ref-karma/" rel="nofollow">referer karma</a>, I’ll let everyone know how it goes.

Know how to get them out of your logs? You know, I set up referer rules in my htaccess, too, to try and combat them, but they’re still showing up in my logs, and that annoys the heck out of me.
