This mod calculates the time it takes to go between these two pages:
  • /forum/register.php?do=register
  • /forum/register.php?do=addmember
The point is to try and prevent bots from registering at your forum when the time between the two pages is humanly impossible, assuming that humans actually take the time to complete the registration page.

Should a user be blocked from registering at your forum, an email will be sent to your vB webmasteremail address and the user will see the vB noregister phrase message, so no screenshot is necessary.

does anyone know how to add these lines of code to the product or 2 plugins to send ip info? I think this is the code needed to get the ip and host info, but I do not know how to add it to the plugin.

$fipaddress = 'IP Address: ' . IPADDRESS . "\r\n";
$iphostname = "Host: " . @gethostbyaddr(IPADDRESS) . "\r\n";

page numbers vary by what each person has it set to in the User CP options.

I have mine set to 40 posts per page.

Actually, it should be:

@gethostbyaddr($_SERVER['REMOTE_ADDR']);

15 seconds for them to register. Basically, if they take more than 15 seconds to register, then the assumption is they are not a bot and are allowed to register.

12 - 15 seems to be ok time.

most bots are 1 sec. to 8 sec. Have never had one take longer yet, and I block over 30+ of these spam bots every day.

The best time I can get to do the reg page with 1 click pasting, took me just over 15.81 sec.
