[quote="admin"]A typical notification from Textual Confirmation looks as the following: [quote] User 'Yfeq' has failed to answer the Textual Confirmation question correctly. It might be a spambot, therefore the registration is rejected. -- User: Yfeq E-mail domain: @mail.ru Website: http://(censored).com Signature: (censored) -- Data provided by the server: REMOTE_ADDR=125.244.xxx.yyy HTTP_USER_AGENT=libwww-perl/5.805 HTTP_VIA=1.1 none:8080 (Topproxy-2.0/) HTTP_X_FORWARDED_FOR=85.255.uuu.vvv ENCODING=windows-1251 -- You are using the COMMUNITY EDITION of Textual Confirmation. This message is also SENT TO US to improve our spam database. To avoid information disclosure, buy the business edition license: http://bbantispam.com/tc/?mode=register -- Textual Confirmation, http://bbantispam.com/tc/ [/quote] I don't want to show the spam words and spam URLs, therefore I replaced them with the word "(censored)". Textual Confirmation regards privacy and sends only the domain part of the e-mail address, not the full address. REMOTE_ADDR is an IP address of the spammer. HTTP_VIA and HTTP_X_FORWARDED_FOR give the list of the proxy-servers used by the spammer. HTTP_USER_AGENT contains the name of the browser or software. Finally, ENCODING allows to correctly interpret the non-English text.[/quote]
