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.

That's what I was going to suggest also.

How to disable vbStopForumSpam Logs? It would be great to have such option in admincp to switch the logs on and off.

I had to uninstall this. I was getting many emails of people saying they could not register as this was saying they were a spammer and it was making them mad and my site lose members.

When they use your contact us form, reply with this:

Code:

Hello there,



If the system is telling you that you are a spammer, please try again with a different username.   There is a chance that your name choice is blacklisted in  a third-party database we subscribe to.



If you'd like, you could go to http://www.stopforumspam.com/search.php and search for your information to see why you might have been restricted.



Thank you

9 times out of ten, they come back and register.

Don't tell them about SFS - they'll only join up there and b**ch and whine about it. Just tell them to get in touch with you in order for you to remove a 'false positive'. 99.99999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999 999999999999 wont.

...because they're spammers.
