    Spam

    Does any one know of an image veification system for posting comments + news in a E107 CMS. Im having problems with Spam being inserted onto my scouting website by some botnets

    There are a number of image verification scripts available, however, I had exactly the same problem WITH image verification. Spam is not necessarily left by a bot - it's left by sad individuals that sit at their computers doing nothing but inserting spam across the world.

    I now use a blog script by Plugged Out

    It's free! In the admin panel you can turn image verification on or off. But the best bit is that it has a banned word list that you can add to or edit. I have not had one spam message left since I installed this! Because it will not accept comments with the drug names or casino etc they can't leave a message Woohoo!

    By the way... my Dad used to be a Scout Leader! UKScouts if you're interested
