Working as it should, you need to read more about what the mod does.

If a person cant register, then check your logs and find out why. If theyre registering from AOL, then no surprise. Check the stopforumspam.com site for the users listing.

There is an option to set an expiry "timeout" - If you want people registering from old "expired as you say" addresses, then set the expiry period to 30 days.

No where does any spam / filtering system guarantee no "collateral damage"

You can disable fields that it tests on.

You can create the user manually in the admincp

You can tell the user that theyre coming from a spam friend ISP

You can uninstall the mod
