Bad Behavior is a PHP-based solution for blocking link spam and the robots which deliver it. Bad Behavior complements other link spam solutions by acting as a gatekeeper, preventing spammers from ever delivering their junk, and in many cases, from ever reading your site in the first place. This keeps your site's load down, makes your site logs cleaner, and can help prevent denial of service conditions caused by spammers. Visit http://bad-behavior.ioerror.us/ for more. Features For more information on the features of Bad Behavior (and subsequently this mod) please go to Bad Behavior's site: http://bad-behavior.ioerror.us/documentation/benefits/ For features related to the mod itself, please take a look at the screenshots. This mod should work with the entire 3.x series (well, beginning with 3.5), but it's only been tested on 3.8.x. I'm not sure if this works on vB 4.x yet, as I've not tested it - but if you try it out, let me know! Installation 1. Extract the contents of the zip file. 2. Upload the contents of the `upload` folder to your forum root. 3. Enter your AdminCP and go to Plugins & Products > Manage Products > [Add/Import Product] 4. Import the product using the `product-vb_badbehavior.xml` file. 5. Configure the mod in AdminCP -> vBulletin Options -> vBulletin Options -> vB Bad Behavior Options Upgrading vB Bad Behavior In many cases, all you'll need to do to upgrade is follow the installation instructions above. The only difference, will be you'll need to allow the files to overwrite. Also, when re-importing the product file, you'll need to set "Allow Overwrite" to "Yes". Bad Behavior Bad Behavior's files are at `/includes/bad-behavior/`. If you wish to update manually go to: http://bad-behavior.ioerror.us/download/ And download the latest development version. Extract the zip, and upload the contents of `bad-behavior` to `/includes/bad-behavior/` allowing the files to overwrite.

If you defaulted it to Yes, but it did not show up as Yes in the Admin CP, then it might just need to be toggled on and back off.

I have just toggled the it, and saved it. But it still shows the 00000000 entries. Its no biggie though. I'm happy as can be that Bad Behavior is finally available for vbulletin.
It will be interesting to see how much server resources / bandwidth this will safe for my big board. And how much the spam bot registrations will go down. |

Nominated for mod of the month
I love using the earlier version of Bad Behaviour. This version has just made my day on fighting scrapers and spam bots Thanks very much for releasing this |

Does BB submit to ProjectHoneypot? If a bad bot hits my site, then will it be submitted to the database? Or do we need to install additional software to join the honeypot network?
Nominated. The bots artabus and deepnet explorer are still registering accounts. Can I submit these bots somewhere? Or can I block them with BB? |

If you go into the bad behaviour folder, look for the blacklist.inc.php file
Open it with wordpad or your prefered editor There are two sections there for banning user agents, first part is begins with user agents Second part is, if found anywhere user agents Ban anywhere user agents are after this code PHP Code:
PHP Code:
I found this mod cured a problem I have with banning user agents via htaccess To test if the ban works. Go to Bots vrs Browsers and check on this page http://www.botsvsbrowsers.com/SimulateUserAgent.asp Add the user agents anywhere in the test string and try to view your forum |

- Bad Behavior upgraded to 2.1.12 - Changed files: o /includes/bad-behavior/core.inc.php o /includes/bad-behavior/searchengine.inc.php - "Verbose" admin option now set to "No" by default. I've reached the max. number of attachments for this thread - so I'll have to move the screenshots elsewhere. I will do this soon. |

There seems to be a problem. After running this for 18 hours I have about 8.000 log entries. I do have an active site. A quick glance shows at least 50 valid members were repeatedly blocked from logging in. So there must be many more guests that have been blocked. About 98% of my users are not logged in.
There were 30% less posts today than normal. This could be a coincidence, but we do not normally get this much deviation. Im getting the first support tickets in. Im not sure if it is related, but I do have vbadvanced installed. One member mentioned that he was able to log in from forum home, but not from the vbadvanced portal. I have temporarily turned BB off until this issue is resolved. Please let me know if you need any information or if I can do anything to fix it. |
