Default More PM SPAM

Another case of Private Message SPAM has been detected, where the spammer is trying to get you click on a link to likely do something bad. I've banned the spammer and deleted the PMs he sent.

I've also decided to disable private messages for all new users. PMs will be enabled for new users once the forum members get to know them.
