Got this message from my non-standard contact form earlier this week:

"Very interesting and beautiful site. It is a lot of helpful information. Thanks!"

I thought "That's nice. How kind."

Then I got the same message again today.

Then I searched on the message:
[google.co.uk...]

Any clues as to what's doing this? Seems to be something to do with casinos. Not a problem at the mo', but I don't want it to become one later.

I have gotten this same message through my support forms on my site.

This could very well be a kind of probe to see if the form is using an autoresponder -- and then if the autoresponder's email server can be compromised to send spam. There are a new bunch of form exploits making the rounds right now.
