It is the same MOD we use on this forum.
This will stop lot of SPAM on your form.

Sounds good, but it seems the new MOD is not active on our forum (Address: pdfsharp*s3*bizhat*com (dots are not allowed to newbies - the new MOD is active)).
We still get lots of new user registrations with homepages. Most of these accounts are never activated and I have to delete them one by one.
I wish the MOD was working for our forum ...
Big wish: a function that removes all accounts that were not activated within 24 hours.
Spammers use the memberlist to enter links to their homepages. The new MOD is a good idea to prevent this!
BTW: Had to write "U*R*L*" to bypass the new filter. I'd say that's too strict!
