Q. Can I modify the match conditions to allow for more than one selection (e.g. IP and e-mail OR IP and username?)
|
A. You certainly can, yes. Though not documented in the code, it can be done. For information on how to do this (note, manual code editing is required for those using v0.23 or earlier), please see; http://botscout.com/forum/index.php/topic,17.msg194.html#msg194

Q. I've only got an ASP website, can I still use this?
|

Q. How do I disable the various DNS blacklists?
|
A. You can either disable them all by using the dbl= option in the querystring. For example; check_spammers_plain.php?dbl=no&.... Or alternatively, you can disable them one by one; Disable Project Honeypot check ph=no Disable SpamCop check sc=no Disable Spamhaus check sh=no Disable Sorbs check sb=no For example, to disable Spamhaus; $sURL = 'http://temerc.com/Check_Spammers/check_spammers_plain.php?sh=no&ip='.$_SERVER['REMOTE_ADDR'];

Q. It's not saving the information to a text file, whats happening?
|
A. By default this is turned off. You can enable it by opening config.php and changing; $bln_SaveToFile = FALSE; To; $bln_SaveToFile = TRUE;

|
Q. I'm getting a "no such file or directory" error?
|
A. This will typically occur when the spambots folder is either missing, or does not have the proper permissions. I've got the script to tell you when the folder is missing, but not got it checking the permissions. For reference please see; http://www.stopforumspam.com/forum/p1319-2008-09-21-11%3A44#p1319

Q. Can I use this with my phpBB2/3, SMF, punBB etc forum?
|
A. Yes you can!. I've provided details and mods at; http://temerc.com/forums/viewforum.php?f=71 If your forum/blog etc software isn't listed, let me know and I'll work on adding it for you (note, if it isn't free, I'll be unlikely to do it as I'd need a licence for this, so you'd be best speaking to your software's developers).
