yip, i think it means that there where 101 urls in the post to register.php. Posibly in the signature.

BTW, Protector 3.03 has been released.

Another suggestion for Protector users is to install the RBL plugin that comes with Protector (read the PDF docs of Protectors Download page).

This will ban any spam comming from banned IP's listed in the RBL.

Some bots have been created that can bypass captcha, unfortunately. Usually these bots are also exploiting a security flaw found in the registration script.

If bots are able to register with XOOPS sites then surely that makes the http-refferer check obsolete (btw im not a security expert, just asking).

But what about those of us who dont want to install an unofficial version of liaise 1.26?

As with any module, if you install an unofficial version you may not be able to update to future official versions.

Followed the instructions on adding captcha and got blank page on registration page.

What gives?

I was thinking it should be part of the XOOPS core.

Ive an idea.

How about creating a question on the registration page that the administrator asks.

Such as, "wot is my favorite meal?" and tell them where to find the answer. That way only a HUMAN can answer thus preventing bot sign-ups.
