clair there is a thread for this  (for removing it) ...   which you already posted in... and I replied to it a moment ago.

Also the people you had join had nothing at all to do with that bookmark image.   That has been there for over a year.
There was a huge influx of spambots recently and that is why you were getting the huge amount of new registrants on your forum.   Steps were taken and suggestions were given to stop this from happening.    You should have recieved Announcements via email about this as well.
