Anti-Spam Measures for the Guestbook  en

Can the Incomedia Team provide more robust measures to combat spam for the guestbook? Perhaps an approach that does not involve the CAPTCHA approach, which spambots have no trouble breaking?

I know there is no single foolproof method to combat spam, but one approach I use on my phpBB forum seems to effectively keep spam bots away. Whereas I used to get hundreds of spam posts, I now get none at all. Here's my approach.

My approach is to use A simple Q and A approach which requires a correct response.

I have a list of tasks such as:

  1. Type the following "check word" backwards (example: fLy 2 = 2 yLf) : ForY 67Ft?
    CORRECT ANSWER is, of course: ?tF6 YroF
  2. Type the following "check word" backwards (example: fLy 2 = 2 yLf) : Professor Beaker+
  3. Type the following "check word" backwards (example: fLy 2 = 2 yLf) : H2SO4+H2O
  4. Type the following "check word" backwards (example: fLy 2 = 2 yLf) : Zygo-Pytho 2

So, can code for a Q and A anti-spambot measure be added as an option to the guestbook?
