Just tested 1.1 with Vb 2.6.5 and the Quick Reply was the only thing which did not work; New Thread, Registration and New Reply (via clicking the New Reply link) all worked.

This will be fixed in 1.2
1.2 will be fully compatible with Vb 3.6.5 along with all the new feathers, including:
PMing or Emailing Banned member name (and what they posted) to selected forum members (via member ID's).

Will be uploading 1.2 in the next day or two.

OK, heres 1.2 with all the options and suggestions which people have posted and a few more.

Currently the plugin has been tested on vB 3.6.5 and 3.7.0 and all options work fine.

Thank you very much for this. I have three other bot protections in place designed to stop them from registering in the first place, but should one get through they've then got yours to contend with. Good work!

Thanks pigpog.

This plugin also has a registration check (its simple, but should help), there is an option in the AdminCP where you can turn that check on or off.

If you have any suggestions for this plugin, please post.

Take care.

Being theres been more then a few downloads and no complaints, guess thats good.

thanks a lot, been getting swamped with them recently :)

fingers crossed this helps., i will check the ip's against the stop forum spam list i have as its to big to add to the banned ip's section :)

most seem to come from te far east so there easy to spot...

thanks for this, the simple ideas are often the best ;)

Your welcome...
Best of luck.

had 1 since install, its helped a lot but not perfect, maybe it needs to appear as a required field to the bot ?

Glad to here its working for you.
In the AdminCP there is a 'Test' option which will make the "SpamBot Text Field" visable, you can test it out if you want.
Im sure there are bots out there which will get by this protection, like said above, its not hi-tech :)

Do you by change have this plugin set up so the spam post are filtered to a seperate forum, so you can see what has been blocked ?
Just wounding, i do not have vB installed anywhere that gets alot of traffic to test out how the plug-in works on a large scale.

Thanks again for your feed back.
