Cloud Flare - Block spam, proxies, cyber attacks, and most unwanted cyber bots

[OldSchoolDSL]

I am not 100% sure where I should post something, when I want to share something with this community. Or if even sharing such information is allowed. If this is in the wrong forum or sharing resource information isn't idea here... Please let me know for future reference's.

I recently have discovered a free services (they have a paid version too), which has stop almost all forum spam, blocked almost all proxies, blocked unwanted cyber bots, and even help block someone from cyber attacking my community.

So I thought I'd share the link.

They basically route all your traffic through their DNS Servers. And it doesn't block valid users out right... If a valid user does something that could be thought of as "high risk", they are brought to a challenge page (most to confirm they are human). They require you to make 1 small template edit.

They say this edit applies to vBulletin 3.8.4, but I found it useful on my copy on 4.1.1 also.

Not sure if I'm doing a good job on explaining what they do. But they have a few videos for others to see and learn what they offer.
