Spam got you down?

[inxilpro (Chris Morrell)]

We just installed a “CAPTCHA” image on both FindAnInspector.US and NACHI’s [N=“memberlist”]Featured Inspectors[/N] page. This image prevents spam bots from sending spam through NACHI’s search engines. We had previously limited any given IP address to 5 e-mails per day, but even 5 spam messages is too many. Though there’s no way to prevent spam 100%, we’re doing everything we can to keep it to a minimum, and this should help quite a bit.

Cheers,

Thanks, Chris. Less spam is always better.

For those who don’t know what a “CAPTCHA” image is…

A “CAPTCHA” is a program that can generate and grade tests that most humans can pass, but current computer programs can’t pass. For example, humans can read distorted text as the one shown below, but current computer programs can’t:
