Stop Spam Bots from Joining

Developer Last Online: Jan 2015 Show Printable Version Email this Page
Category: Anti-Spam Options - Version: 3.8.x Rating:
Released: 07-05-2009 Last Update: 07-05-2009 Installs: 161
Uses Plugins
Re-useable Code  
No support by the author.

This is my first mod, so it is pretty simple, but it works well.

What it does:
This modification queries the stopforumspam.com database with the IP address and email of the user registering. If the IP address or email is found in the database, the user will get an error message and the registration process will be stopped.

What you need:
You'll need file_get_contents or CURL on your server for this to work. If one does not exist, it will try to use the other.

Install:
Just import the product in the Admin CP.

Notes:
If you want to customize the error messages, they are named "spammer_ip" and "spammer_email" in the Phrase Manager.

Updates:
Version 1.0.1
- Fixed a small error with checking the IP address.

It also has the features this mod lacks. Logs etc.

It works fine on my 3.8.x boards.
Not sure about the endorsing bit..They have a link back to vborg..

Yes, that's what we call an endorsement.

The other one shows that it is only good for version 3.6x, where this reads 3.8. I think I will download this plugin since it is up to date.

Some legal notice:

You as site-admin are sending userdata to "others".
In some countries it's illegal to do this without the permission of the user
