Code:
## SpamBuster config file note i have regexp:a_url:10:any:"/http:\/\//i" regexp:a_www_url:10:any:"/www\./i" regexp:a_url2:10:any:"/[^="]http|ftp|gopher[^ \n\r]+(?=[\s\.,])/i" for some reason the first one would not work but my second one does. Looks complicated but basically it trys to find http ftp or gopher. you can also do something like regexp:a_url2:10:any:"/[^="]http|ftp|gopher|com|www[^ \n\r]+(?=[\s\.,])/i" but note on the www. its /www\./i, btw the i is to ignore case. So it basically converts it to lowercase and then checks. But its /www\./ because of the period. otherwise you could do /www/i which will find that exact value unless you have a unique character like a period then you have to do something like shown above. |

Quick note that it worked for me for anyone else looking to solve this problem, it beats installing, uninstalling, disabling, etc. Thanks for that!

Quick thanks and an atta-boy for this hack. I have been customizing the text file for the past day or two. It is currently 99% accurate at spotting spam and has cut down the reported posts (the main goal) 90% on the first day. Our users never see the spam, our moderators can handle it easier, a true win\win for everybody... except the spammers.

I have upgraded to 3.6.4 - thought it was working ok, but apparently it only works for thread replies. If a new post is made, it is not checked, but reply to any post, and the post will be flagged correctly.
Does anyone know how I can fix this? |
Great Mod thanks. stopped 10 spam the 1st 24 hours. can it be changed alittle? I would like to autoban the user and delete tread or post at the same time
can that be an option you can enable? or have the moderate icon clickable, so when you click on it will delete the tread and ban the user Also can this be used on PM's I have a few spam bots some and start sending spam via PM too |
I saw this in use on a few other sites. nice work.

Here is our updated spambuster rules. We are at about 90% effective right now. The ones getting by are typically rare single domain posts. Since we have people posting Hijack This log files, those occasionally get caught, but we are very happy with this latest file.
Our work on this updated text is 3 months and 282 replies from our moderators perfecting it! It uses a LOT of known spamming domains, so if your website allows a ton of html links, this wont work very well for you, but you can edit it yourself. A good bit of re-write and time has gone into it, I hope it helps you as much as it has us. Comments and suggestions welcome. |
I've installed this hack, but as a result, it has broken my Moderate Posts function. If it catches a false positive, I have to disable the product, approve the post, then re-enable it.
