However, the extra hoops it requires on registrations does a good job at blocking spambots. Perfection is not possible. Excellence, however, is excellent. WWW IP Logged

With a little time, may be able to figure out where the problem came from, but for the moment .... (Just checking for testing purposes, anyway ... this is the mod that complies with some law in England, right? Not something I really need for my forum, just testing installation and workings on these.) If you don't know where you are, but you don't care, you're not lost ... you're exploring! IP Logged
