|
An Asian website company seems to have a script that is posting spam messages in the forums each day, while I try to delete them as they show up you guys might see them from time to time. Luckily their links dont appear to goto any porn or otherwise highly offensive content.
I am trying to figure out how to block that IP address so they cant post... I really dont want to be forced to make the forums accessable only to members but unless I can figure out how to block their IP directly I might have to.
So to recap I do know about and am working on blocking it

I've seen this on another site that I am the moderator on and it seems that the only way to get rid of this is to block it. The site that I moderate is also an open site where any one can post whether a member or a non-member.

I know it's a bit of a nuisance, but would it help to have everyone log in when they access the site? Quite a few sites are resorting to that now. Best wishes.

You could make it not posible to post active links for guests. Members would have smilies, HTML, and Formating and stuff.
Not Active Content

I still like my baseball bat wrapped in barbed wire used for colon cleaning followed by short beating with bat about head and body region, kerosene enema, and short chase with a torch.
Yes, I've had my fill of spammers and virius writting morons of late. I was gone for a week and came back to 756 emails, 250 or so from lists/friends/new flashes, the remainder were various porno, viagra, drug, cracked software, loans, business offers, ponzi scams, etc.
