It worked fine for me under 3.8.5. I'm running 3.8.7 vB now without any issues as well.

We regularly get complaints from legitimate users that are blocked by SFS. We tell them that their IP was contaminated and they need to request a new IP from their ISP. I very much doubt that people actually do that.

Please add a way for legitimate users to get their IP off the blacklist. Or for admins to do this for them.

What is it that I have done then... I am running VB Publisher's suite - latest, I believe (vBulletin 4.1.3).

I can't even log in under a fake username. I have no idea why this thing is so air-tight right now. I got rid of the Re-Captcha, and using the "standard" one, but that still is not allowing anyone in. Not even me. I love it that all the Spam is gone now... but so are all my USERS!!

Any ideas?

Edith, wrong thread, if you have installed this one you will be in trouble as it is not for vB4, you want this one https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showthrea...hreadid=230921

Have anyone tried to log into their forum using a known spammer name, to check the end user side of this? And if I do, will my IP be banned?

1. It definitely works -as testified by so many posts here- as long as they have been submitted to the SFS database. 2. Only you can ban your own IP. It does not ban them.

I am looking for the additional mod to submit spammers to the [stopforumspam] database.

For code to submit spammers to the database, check this post for code changes
https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showpost....&postcount=288 is a dead link.
Not sure if you found it - I manage to locate it at post #1015 in this thread (ie. https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showpost....postcount=1015)

Is there a way to allow a certain user to register even if this mod is blocking it? The only way I can think is to deactivate it temporarily but that will also let others pass through.

I have someone from 138.162.0.45 trying to register which is a US Military base. He contacted me saying he's being blocked and I'd rather let him through to see if he's real then just saying "F off" to him...

This is what I do.
Look in the vbStopForumSpam log for his username or ip address.
Create a new membership for him. Use his username and email. Create a password for him.
Email him that information. Have him log in and change the password.

Much simpler than disabling the mod and makes the member happier.

I concur. This is what we do.
