There was yet another Slashdot article about it yesterday and someone
mentioned this. I haven't tried it but if you are having an issue that could
quickly put it to the test, I'd give it a shot.

....just put an empty, hidden field in your form. When you process the form,
make sure it is still empty. The poster suggested that bots fill in all
fields that they can find.

That makes a LITTLE sense but I think I'd hide the field with CSS and not
give it an actual type of 'hidden'.

Subject: Capture Alternatives

Hi all,

Has anyone come up with any alternatives to using form captures for
preventing spam bots?

Ideally I'd like a solution that is relatively seamless to the users
requiring little/no extra involvement.
