Bad Behavior 2.0.2
July 16th, 2006 by Michael Hampton
Bad Behavior 2.0.2 has been released to provide additional protection from certain blog and wiki spammers and email address harvesters.
New in this release (since 2.0.1):
- A check has been added for certain types of blog comment and wiki spam.
- Several email address harvesters have been added to the blacklists.
As always, if you find Bad Behavior valuable, please consider making a financial contribution. I develop Bad Behavior in my spare time, and every little bit means I have more spare time to devote to its development.
And don’t forget to subscribe to the RSS feed or the mailing list. (They’re the same content.)

Hi Michael, I received 3 support keys of the 17f4e8c8 type from my site users. I believe you could improve the instructions you provide online such as here:
http://www.ioerror.us/bb2-support-key?key=53b8-3ffe-17f4-e8c8
You could offer the alternative to download either a clean Firefox in the, or the Firefox/Google bundle that helps funding the development of BB.
I chose to use several Google services (while well aware of many privacy concerns, see:

Let me know what you think about.
