Empty records in database

Hi,

i've used cake for several websites and i never had such a problem.

Now one of my websites is an online car selling website when users can
signup and post their cars for sale.

It's about a couple of weeks that every day i find some empty posts
(empty DB records) in my web site. Normally this should not be
possible as, of course, i have an ACL control over the methods that
are accessible to the users. Also when a user posts something this is
stored in th DB along with the user id and for those posts the user id
is set to 0.
I have also tried to log the ip of the user that inserts a post
through the add action but for those posts the ip is empty.
So im quite sure that those records are not coming through the add
method but i really dont know where else to look as i have checked all
the methods but of course none of them has an insert action.

I also tried to change the DB and cpanel password as i was thinking
of an hacking or something but with no result.

So the only thing that could think is that maybe some strange cake
action is triggering this.

Googleing i found out that someone else had the same problem

but i dont know if he could find out.

I some one could help i would really appreciate very much.
