I would recommend you to upgrade your GLinks Install.
  • Use Capthca Plugin that is made available by RGB World, Inc. It should solve a lot of spam issue that might be caused by automated software.
  • Andy have a beautiful plugin called Block Domains Pro, that can be 'very helpful' to you too.

Hope this helps.

Hi,

This is possibly the cheapest way to stop a majority (if not all) of your spam:

It makes a random image, like:



This means they have to enter the random charachters correctly, before it will let them add their listing.

Hope that helps.

Cheers
