If so, how do you stop it!!! Any help appreciated Lou Do you mean the contact form on the contact page? You can install captcha which makes users type a certain number of alpha-numeric characters to show they are human and not malicious spam robots. You can find a number of contribs for this in the contributions section. Just do a search for anti spam or visual verify or anti robot. My Profile | Contribs I like most: 'On The Fly' Auto Thumbnailer, Active Countries, Header Tags Controller, Ultimate SEO URLs, UK Based osC, UK Postcode Validation, Open Featured Sets, UK Postcode Based Carrier Shipping Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jesse J Posted February 15, 2007 Share Posted February 15, 2007 OK looks like there was an exploit in old versions of OSC. Here's the fix: http://bugtrack.oscmax.com/view.php?id=79 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
