OK. I changed the one question that had a 'yes/no' answer to something
else, and binned the existing spammer accounts (a week or so ago) and
that seems to have prevented further defacement, but it may just be a
matter of time. Everyone keep an eye on the 'recentchanges' button so
we find out quickly when we get spammed. I've added Neil and Hector to
full admin status too so they can nuke spam and spammers easily.
