Spam Bots and Forms

[Aerowalker]

Hello, spam bots have been filling out my forms for some time now and I am realizing there is a new version of Blue Voda Form. My form works well but is the old version without captcha. How can I update this? What do I need to my form to have captcha? Thanks for your help. My form is here.

Download the new version of Advanced BlueVoda Form Processor . It has been enhanced not only with the captcha protection, but also with header injection protection. As long as you take 5 minutes to add the necessary extensions to your field names, ABVFP will protect you against bot spamming AND manual spamming (to a degree).

Download the zip. IF you had ever installed version 2, (after January 2007) you only ned to replace the files in your ABVFP folder, and then look in the zip for instructions on the use of captcha. If you have never installed it, then you also need to follow the installation instructions.

At the begining of the forms section, there is a thread that has the ABVFP that was created by Navaldesign. It is very powerfull and will take care of all your problems.

Othewise, you would need to create a custom php script to take care of that.
