I am not sure of you programming ability or what you board is written in, but a simple filter at the point a post is submitted could stop a lot of this cr@p. Some time ago I wrote my own SPAM filter on my email where certain catch phrases used in spam are separated out form my mail.
For example I would not allow any post that has words like (ad-placer.com, work form home, Typist, Opportunity, make money and so on) my point there are certain phrasings/words that always turn up in these SPAMs that no legitimate poster would use that can be filtered out..

Also a note to everyone PLEASE do not click on their links as they are tracking the click through rate.

just a suggestion,
curt
