Well my scripts automatically add the IP address to the .htaccess file if it works out they are spamming. Blocking a couple of domains in URLS got rid of a lot of crap. Block jo.pl and it will take out a lot of your spam as thats all they seem to host!
Well the RBLs have trapped a lot of the spammers. Also I’ve put a bit of code in that at the moment is logging the IP of any person accessing the trackback script. The next step is to take that code and wrap it into the trackback script so that posts containing “banned” words get […]
