I actually recommend stopping it at the firewall.  It got hit with a
ton of referrer spam and I wound up blocking most of it before it hit
the app.

Anybody have any especially good suggestions for preventing referrer
spam? We're on Roller 2.1 and have seen a sudden influx of referrer spam
in our logs from porn sites.

I've seen the Spam Prevention box under Site Administration, but
couldn't find any hints on Google or the User Guide about how to use the
regex features - does it work exactly like regex in Perl (I'm forever
having to add backslashes to use regex within Java)? Will it work to
prevent referrer spam from specific domains, as well as for individual
terms within URLs?

Thanks in advance for any advice!
