Re: User called zhanglingjuan114 possible spambot?

it’s no solution and pointless running as yet one more plugin, this is simply a Order Allow Deny Apache directive and would be placed in you httpd.config file preferably or in your .htaccess and then list IP or domains to deny. Blocking IPs isn’t something that should be done lightly as it can have repercussions and is only effective on domains if there is one specific troublemaker these spam bots use spoofed domains they will change on the fly so little point trying to block them.

Preventing spam is a multi faceted approach and the many areas and things that need to be done covered at length on the support forum, you need to use all of them to effectively reduce spam and if possible don’t let people sign up for blogs from the sign up page
