Thanks Joe - the pointer to blogCFC will be useful when we go to add the
'bad' word filtering.

 

If anyone else has suggestions I would welcome them as well.

 

Thanks,

Tom

Tom,
This isn't too hard.  You'd have to write an app or you could look at
Ray Camden's blogCFC which has the ability to black list IP's and "bad"
words and use some of his code.  I've done this on some of my forums. 
Thanks,
Joe Kelly

Good morning all,

My company recently experienced issues with one user who has been
posting harassing and abusive messages on our forums.  We have tracked
him to several user accounts (we verify email address for the accounts) 
and shut those accounts down.  We have also tracked his IP address and
will prevent him from using that IP address again to access our forums.

Now that we have dealt with this user we are looking at ways to prevent 
this type of abuse from occurring in the future or at minimum ways to
detect and handle abuse like this quickly.  Any suggestions on
approaches to detecting and preventing future occurrences like this
would be appreciated. 

Thanks,
Tom
