Allot of bots have OCR built in now that is designed to read even the most unreadable CAPTCHA images, making CAPTCHA not that good a deterrent any more.

Facebook offer a tool which allows visitors to tell their friends through facebook. I would suggest using something like that instead.

Hello Bruce
 
Thanks for your reply.
 
Would that apply even if the site used the 'Captcha' images?
 
Thanks.

Unless you want to have your website abused by a spammer and blacklisted you should not use 'Tell a Friend' email applications. They died out about 10 years ago when spammers realised they could use these to send 1,000's of spam emails a minute in order to spam people.

Hello
 
I am getting the following server error message:
 

CDO.Message.1

error '8004020c'

At least one recipient is required, but none were found.

/tell_a_friend.asp, line 67

Line 67 in the code below refers to this: ObjSendMail.Send
 
Is this problem related to the ASP file referred to here, since I don't know what that is:
 
<form method="post" action="sendtellafriend.asp"><br>
 
<html>
<head>
<title>Tell a Friend</title>
</head>
<body>
 
<table border="0" align="center"><tr><td align="left"><br>
<form method="post" action="sendtellafriend.asp"><br>
Your Name: <input type="text" name="fromname" size="20"><br>
Friend's name: <input type="text" name="friendname" size="20"><br>
Friend's Email: <input type="text" name="friendemail" size="30"><br>
<br>
<input type="submit" value="Tell a Friend about this website"><br>
</form> </td></tr></table>
</body>
</html>
 
<% fromname = Request("fromname")
friendname = Request("friendname")
friendemail = Request("friendemail")
msgBody = "Hello" & friendname & vbcrlf &"I have found a quality Web site and thought you may find it useful: http://www.mySite.com - http://www.mySite.com"& vbcrlf &vbcrlf & fromname
Set ObjSendMail = CreateObject("CDO.Message")
'This section provides the configuration information for the remote SMTP server.
ObjSendMail.Configuration.Fields.Item (" http://schemas.microsoft.com/cdo/configuration/sendusing - http://schemas.microsoft.com/cdo/configuration/sendusing") = 2 'Send the message using the network (SMTP over the network).

ObjSendMail.Configuration.Fields.Update
'End remote SMTP server configuration section
ObjSendMail.To = friendemail
ObjSendMail.Subject = friendname & ", check this out."
ObjSendMail.From = fromname & "@mySite.com"

ObjSendMail.TextBody= msgBody
ObjSendMail.Send

Set ObjSendMail = Nothing
Response.Redirect " http://www.mySite.com - www.mySite.com"
%>
 
Thanks for any help.
