Thread: Must have Plugin to stop spammers from the start

I block the IP of India and Pakistan and most of my sites are ok.

I have used this and, while it works, sometimes does not play nice with other plugins....

Friendly fyi

Mine suddenly stopped working and nothing I do can get it working again

I do not understand.
What stopped working?

The plugin... No longer stops spammers. I try and register with known spammer email addresses and it goes through fine

Hi,

I am also getting spammers registering on my site. I was wondering how you blog IP addressess from country like China,etc. My site only address the Canadian/US market so anyone registering from other countries are likely to be spammers! I was also wondering why the registration process can not be modify to ask a math question to stop automoted registration? Can it be done via plugin? I only have stop spammer registration at present on my site.

Thanks for your suggestions/comments
