We can check from server log as well. Spamming is common on all forums. If i find some time, will surely look into it.

By the way, today is the last day if we want to change our hosting and i think the decision is to continue with this one.

I understand how spam posted with my name.
Spam can manage posting as a Guest, but using some other member name as author.
Check the screen shot posted by Adnan replies & views are zero. Last post column shows that post is made by Guest with author name spearbajell.
