- The problem with this one is that none of the links on the spammed pages actually go to cheefmsn.com, which I assume is why the filter isn't catching them.

Apparently the link to my deviantart account. screenshot The same happened with my blog link (which is vacuidaddeluz in blogspot) Maybe the filter's looking for URLs with "de".

regular expressions
ok, so i'm trying to come up w/ a regex to block any instance of the word regardless of the character that comes before it... using sample as an example, the closest thing i've found is .+sample... this blocks any character before sample except for [ ] " < > and a single or double slash (/ or //), but it would block a triple slash... of course just adding sample to the blacklist would block http://sample.com whereas .+sample would not, but http://example-sample.com would not be blocked by sample, but would be blocked by .+sample. if anyone knows how to write a regex that would block both, please advise, as the second example (http://example-sample.com) is what i'm seeing more frequently in the spam pages... of course one option is to add both instances of each word, one that is plain (sample), and one that is nearly wild (.+sample).

del.icio.us
i really feel that del.icio.us is too broad... some users may want to include a link on their userpage, and i don't think it should be necessary for users to request their specific URL to be whitelisted... i'm not even sure why it was blacklisted in the first place... i'll give this a few days for others to respond, but then i think i will remove it...
