well you can always build on the word filters you had there......with the
http:// and what not. have the form check for urls and words.
and, you could implement a sort of email block, for those spamers that stick
to one email.

 It seem that any form on a web site attracts morons who capricious submit

rather
a fully filled out form.

In some cases, such as a guest book, their action is misguided but
understandable. They want to advertise the sites selling little blue
pills and stock recommendations. However, is some cases they make
no sense at all such as submitting a bogus email address to a
newsletter subscription form.

I've done a few things, like disqualifying the submission of a guest book
entry containg "http:// <http:///>" that have been fairly effective. This
doesn't
work for subscription type forms. These are especially annoying because
they eventually require the time to manually unsubscribe these entries.

Does anyone have any suggestions other then captcha.

Thanks
