Thanks for the mod update.

BTW, there is a slight change in the docs needed (not sure just for 4.x)

Item 4 in the installation manual should read...

4 - You can edit the default rejection message by Admin Control Panel / Languages & Phrases / Phrase Manager / Error Messages / vbstopformspam_reject and vbstopformspam_reject_connectionerror

There isn't a "Front-End Error Messages" section, just "Error Messages"

Not a big deal but it took me a minute to find the right spot.

When I can hold my eyes open (tomorrow I guess), Ill change the instructions and reload the mod.

=) Sleep is a good thing. No rush, mainly posted it for information for others. Thanks for updating this mod.

One question.. is anyone getting valid usernames and/or email addresses in their log?

My log looks strange, but it is possible that they were using "Unregistered" and "EMAIL"...but strange that it is on ALL of the items in the log.

Code:

Unregistered        2009-12-24 08:32:14        EMAIL        202.116.160.89        Result on field ip - 202.116.160.89 - Spammer and rejected by policy

Yeah, I get that too. But every one of them traces IP back to RIPE, which is always some stupid spammer or troll in my case.

I installed this yesterday and it's already blocked a bunch of spammer/bots.

Big thanks!

Dang.

And I only installed when this thread appeared.. 734 in 4 days. Nice.

734 in 4 days, wow, they like you.

Had to uninstall it as it stopped several trusted friends from joining.
