INSTALLED, works fine on 3.6.0

How about instead of chosing just one image - you had to chose 2 or 3 of them correctly in the random order they were presented ?

I gave up and have resorted to just approving members manually. The people programming these bots are using some very recognizable footprints when registering (and leaving some board specific questions unanswered ) - so they stand out like a sore thumb when registering. They have now resorted to spamming our 'contact us' link.

Just add all bots not on this to the .htaccess file, this will keep them out. Make sure you place it in your root dir.

im not new to hacks, i wish this had an install.txt but i think ive done everything right, i have GD libraries installed and i set the right permissions on the files, yet still images dont show they are just dead Xs

im also using the hack that u have to have a minimum of posts on certain words or it is set to moderation, that hack has seem to stopped bots

Silverstangs 12-21-2006 02:50 PM

Wow I like this hack I wish there was one for 3.0.0... I guess I'm gonna need to upgrade a few dozen forums...

**I need more $$$ to fund that thou.. maybe one forum at a time..

crazymeezer 12-23-2006 08:59 AM

This is wonderful, has stopped all spam sign ups dead. Thanks so much!
