I'm still getting a few spam registrations but they have definitely slowed way down.
To see what I'm missing, I wrote this to take a look occasionally, while I sip a beer in my new free time. I used http://www.maxmind.com/app/csv to help determine the countries from the ip addresses added spamlog table with fields id_spamlog, ip, viewdate, num_spam added geoip_data table with fields country_full, ip32_start, ip32_end http://www.maxmind.com/app/csv PHP Code:
Yesterday there were 78 different ip addresses trying to register. |

Shoot...
Even more easy is to ask questions at the registration time... Like my site is a Dodge Cummins support site. So I ask question about the the Cummins engine at registration time. Like how may cylinder does a Cummins have etc. If you a true Cummins fan you would know this simple answer is 6 (six)... But the bots have never made it in the door yet... So really you don't need to go out on a limb codeing use the tools you already got... But to the OP I love the idea of sending the bot to another site... Neat trick but just a bit to much moding for me... I'm not really wanting to chop up the code... |

I'm with you - I was deleting a few new registrations a day until I added a question/answer. Mine is a simple what is 12-2 question, which stopped them cold.

Maria, thanks very much for sharing. I was searching how to do this exact thing last night when I found this thread. I implemented it this morning. Oh boy, what a boring day I've had ever since, not a single spam registration to deal with. :-)
P.S. I've implemented your mod on my vB 3.8.x. |
