| I use NoSpam and I haven't hardly any spam at all, including live persons spamming my forums. I think I have only had, maybe 3 of them since installing it. | ||||

Unfortunately on my forum, we often share URLs. So it would actually turn off more users than spammers. But thanks for the tip! | |||||

| If your using SMF, you can add to the already great anti spam setting with these = http://custom.simplemachines.org/mod...?action=search I'm using the default setting in conjunction with 'Spam me not' - link. Since we switched from invisionfree to SMF, we have had zero spam bots compared to our 4-6 a day problems we had before. | ||||
