Over the past several weeks, my “contact me “form has been attacked by spammers. As I was writing yesterday, my email notifier kept bonging at me whenever these bots would send me their crap. I finally got sick of it and looked on the WordPress Plugin site, where I found the plugin below. It requires users to answer a simple question before hitting Send. That should take care of these intrusions, I hope.

    I hope so, too! :)

    It’s working so far, Doug. ;) Thank you very much!

  3. I’ve had lots of problems, but not the one you’ve described…yet. However, if I do I’ll be back to follow that link, Deborah.

    Thanks for sharing.

    Anytime. ;)

  5. After numerous problems on my site, and the breaking on my contact form (amongst other things), I’m going to install this plugin when I get back to normal - instead of the one I’m using now.

    Again, thanks for the tip.

    You’re welcome, Karen. So far, I haven’t had a single spam hit since I installed this plugin.
