Someone has obviously set up a script tha automatically submits a brochure request on my site. For the past hour I've been getting about one request per second all to teh same bogus address but with a different name. I have changed the address of the form but I'm sure that will only allow me a short period of peace and quiet.

Can anyone suggest a script or better still an extension that I can use to stop this happening?

Cheers


Dave

Or an extra security form field that asks a question like "What month
comes after July?"
