My understanding of the stats is that spammers combine initial manual setup with later automated spamming. In this case I presume the spammer's cronjob reported a failure to login, triggered manual check (reading the GNU manifesto page), fixing the cronjob and running it again. Not all spammers have error reporting though, as shown by the ridiculously high number of blocked anonymous spam. So I guess we need to implement 10-20 questions instead of one, and also make it less automatable by storing the currently selected question on the server-side rather than in a form field. I'm not sure why spammers insist on posting urls here though, trackers item doesn't get a particularly high google rank in general.. _______________________________________________________ Reply to this item at: <http://savannah.gnu.org/support/?106304> _______________________________________________ Message sent via/by Savannah http://savannah.gnu.org/
