Hi
 
I notice you too have been hit by "myspace123" as we did yesterday.
 
How about as a new Spam restriction, or "requires moderation", you have the option to check the IP address and if it is from a certain country, it can be blocked, moderated, or let through.
 
Myspace123 resides in China

IP to Country databases are normally supplied on a subscription biases and cost allot of money, you also need to have components installed on the server in order for them to work.

If you have access to your server to install the components and don't mind spending the money on the subscriptions, then have a look at Maxmind GeoIP or IP2Location websites.

The later versions of Web Wiz Forums do link to our IP Information page next to any IP address displayed in Web Wiz Forums, see below:-


This allows us to give you as much information as we can on a IP address without burdening  customers with extra costs of including IP location databases within the forum software itself.

The next version of Web Wiz Forums will also link to the StopForumSpam service, which can check to see if the IP address, email address, or username is listed in their spammers database. This should help0 reduce spam.

I have submitted myspace123 details to StopForumSpam so anyone using this service to prevent spam in their forums would be able to block this spammer.
