Project Honey Pot is the first and only distributed system for identifying spammers and the spambots they use to scrape addresses from a website.
Using the Project Honey Pot system the user can install addresses that are custom-tagged to the time and IP address of a visitor to a site.
If one of these addresses begins receiving email Project Honey Pot not only can tell that the messages are spam, but also the exact moment when the address was harvested and the IP address that gathered it.
Install this plugin to help contribute to the project and catch spammers by hiding links to honey pots (spam traps) in a blog.
Links are hidden from visitors, but spambots and crawlers follow them straight into the traps.
Installation:
Unpack and upload it to the /wp-content/plugins/ directory.
Activate the plugin through the 'Plugins' menu in WordPress.
What is new in this release:
- Fixed upgrade bug that caused saved settings to be overwritten.
- Fixed incorrect link on settings page.
- Gave images and links that weren't explicitly hidden margin and padding of 0.
- Gave this plugin's hooks last priority, which should hopefully ensure they are the last hooks to process content.
Requirements:
- WordPress 2.8 or higher
