Default Leaking Slider???!!!

guys I read several threads about this, some say its normal, others say its not. here is a picture, my bike has 10,000 miles and has never looked like this. I've got about 6000 mile's on this since the install of my progressive springs. I washed my bike around 100 miles ago. tonight I was looking at my bike and seen this. thoughts????

I still see what resembles a pubic hair on your forks by that mess though so it's still kinda naughty.

I've got close to 30,000 miles on my bike and I've never had it get like that on my forks. I'm talking about the oily mess, not the pubic hair. I have had a couple pubes on my sliders but then that's a story for another thread...
