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.

He got through.. note the IP address is different for all three attempts!
I figured it would only be a matter of time.

At least you KNOW this user is a spammer or at least a very potential one. I'd ban him straight away.

This is excellent, calorie, thank you so much. In the last five days it's prevented 35 bot registrations. I moderate all new registrations, and it's a pleasure to have saved so much time now that I don't have to check on as many fishy new users.

Three cheers to you!

Ditto. It's made it much easier to combat the spam bots. :up:

I love this hack. It's blocked over 800 signups in just one month. One suggestion I would like to make is for the blocked email addresses to be automatically added to the ban list.

This to me makes a lot of sense. I only have 280 or so a month - but just occasionally some keep trying until they get through. If someone uses a bot to have a go at my site just the once, then I'm happy to block that email account for ever!

Ooh creepy, Torqued -- that same bot hit my forum this morning too, at 6:21 EST, trying five times to get past IsBot.

But IsBot vanquished it! Yay for IsBot.

This is seriously the best mod ever...Everyone needs to install this mod because it has saved me a ton of headaches already with spammer....I don't get any spammers anymore really...How this mod was never nominated for "Mod of the Month" yet is beyond me.

*Nomitated*

Same from me. I administer two sites, one small and one huge, and it's stopping 95-98% of the spammers dead in their tracks.
