Spam in Links Submit?
I searched the forums but can't find any posts about this issue.
I'm getting spam through my "submit a link." There are upwards of a dozen a day now; they have a fake email address, a one-line, badly worded complement of sorts about my site, and then a list of links to various places on some site that doesn't really exist.
I tried requiring a link back, but apparently it isn't really required, because they can put anything they want.
I've tried going to the "whois" to see if it's an IP I can block; they are coming from all over the world (including the US).
Can anyone help me find a way to deal with this problem? Is there a way to implement CAPTCHA with links submission?
I'm running v1.3.6.
Thanks for any help!
