[FM Discuss] spambots attack

Hello,

In the Finnish FLOSS Manuals these ManualTalk discuss pages are not even in
use. Still a spambot is constantly adding comments. Seems like the spambot
is advertising various medicines.

I am scared - how long will it take before the spambot will learn how to
edit the actual manuals?

Spambot appears as user TWikiGuest. I noticed that this user can edit the
manuals in translation mode.
