Pretty sure it takes affect before Spam-O-Matic kicks in and will atleast block all the automated bots.

Though currently I'm having issues with Spambot Stopper posting to a thread but that's an option that can be disabled
(probably just an issue with my own forum )

thanks for suggestion I am running the "You and Spam" mod which is brilliant and help catch most of the spammers but I was running both and it was great.

Suddenly this mod is unable to connection the the Stop forum Spam server and I have no idea why.

My website hosting company says they have made no changes on their side but I am not sure about this.

what would cause this issue of connection problems
