Who is the "man" that everyone here is talking about and what happened to him?

"man" was a person that spent the whole day on Questions today, answering thousands of questions.. always referring people to his virus-laden web site.. not really answering questions. Took forever to wake up the Yahoo cops and get him pulled.

"The man" is listing the same link to each question that he answers. He has only been a member since December 13, 2006, yet has attained over 27,000 points. I have also seen "people" with the same format that "the man" uses. Hopefully Yahoo!Answers will figure out how to stop this from happening. It's kinda taking the fun out of this for me.

Someone was answering lots of questions, directing people to the same website. Yahoo Answers has rules about how many questions you can answer in a day but it seemed this character was answering way more than was allowed.

Tony S explained it correctly, but you should be aware that are already a few new "bots" floating around today. One I'm pretty sure is orcal_girl (sp?). So apparently whoever this is has simply started again under a new name(s). Don't click on their links...they are probably a virus.

He answers all questions by directing you to websites. Very annoying and needs to get a life. My advise is to NEVER click on website links off of this question board. They could be heading you towards a virus.
