Does this ban countries from accessing the site or just registering?

Here's the link to the country codes.

And this will only work at the registration process.

I noticed the link after I installed, so edited my post. Thanks for that. Considering we're a UK based site and most of our spam is coming from Asia, it makes more sense to block these registrations than waste resources. This may be just what I need and far simpler than glowhost

We've had something like 12 thousand attempted spam signups in the last few months - so everything that does the job is appreciated!

When a user is blocked, do they get a specific message or just the standard "we cannot register you right now"?

Yes, they're displayed an error telling why they can't register.. whether it be country block or email match.. etc.

Hmmm ... I have set the UK as an allowed country (UK website, hosted in the UK).

Anyway, just had a message from a user with a UK IP address asking why his country has been blocked!
