There was a digg story about it. Just delete the user in question.

So another good countermeasure would be to put "FuntKlakow" as a banned username yea?

not really sure, but my hosting company will not even allow phpbb anymore so there maybe more to it than just a posting bot, sorry i don't have any more info about, again, just wanted to pass the info on
 
Cheers for the heads up...I indeed did have the FuntKlakow registered, possibly because I hadn't upgraded to the latest 2.2.19 release so my board was unprotected. Deleted and banned the user and removed the 2 posts the bot had made.
