i found a trick on the german phpbb forum that sounds good to me, but i do not know anything about php and phpbb,

they say something like spambots call a function "GET /phpBB/profile.php?mode=register&agreed=true"

so if in the file "includes/usercp_register.php" the word "agreed" is changed to something else (it is 6 times in the file) this call should not work anymore... but be sure to change it everywhere in the code, otherwise nobody can register anymore...

also usefull seems to be this mod:


gordon please tell me if this helped?

Hi. I'll go look into it - i like the idea of changing that word - nice and simple and it should cut out 90% of registrations

but be sure not to change it to something like "agreeed" or so, better use a unrelated word or random string

just did it now. I can still create new users. We'll see if it helps at all - it may not depending how smart the bots are :( Looking at it there's quite a lot of changes that can be made to made it harder for the bot writers though.

maybe this mod can help, seems to be a big pack of security tools for phpbb, but i dont realy know what it can do at all and how much administrative work it needs

would be nice if i could do it automatically - anyone with more than 4 numbers in their name gets the chop :) tbh I could make the whole process of accepting users manual - we don't ave that many users
