Once in a while, you'll get someone using a 'virgin' IP address (or family of them) that hasn't been flagged in SPAM indices, and they can do-- well, this-- until you ban them and flag them in one of the SPAM registries.

Forum spam is a major headache, let me just add, even with a top-notch filter that weeds out a lot of them.
