: Security- can Spammers Use My Tell A Friend : patchespal May 16, 2008, 10:59:12 PM Are spammers able to use my Tell A Friend email system? Is there a way to add Captcha? One system I read about uses a hidden field that if a Bot fills it will not send the email. I have been looking to see if this component is secure and would like to know if it is. I love the system and would prefer to allow public access to it.

I also had to disable it, because of that problem. Unless there is Captcha in it, security on your website will be compromised.

What can we do against these spammers using the "Tell a friend"-module? Please help! |
