Bad Behavior Project Update
August 11th, 2006 by Michael Hampton
There’s no release of Bad Behavior this week, as no new bugs have been reported, and no new spammers have been blocked.
But there is a posting, because I am hard at work on a related project to identify and block more spammers before they can even send their first spam, and I need your help.
If you would like to help with this project, and you are running a high traffic blog getting a lot of blocked spam (or missed spam), you may qualify. E-mail me at badbots@ioerror.us with your blog address and an estimate of how much spam Bad Behavior blocks, and how much it misses, in any given day. If you’re only getting a small amount of spam, it’s probably not worth it; I’m looking for higher traffic sites.
You can also help by making a financial contribution. I develop Bad Behavior in my limited spare time, and every little bit allows me to devote more time to battling spammers.

I would of volunteered up until last week where i thought i was getting a large number of spams 200+ a day until i firewall blocked a couple of ip address’ [81.95.146.162] and now its down to only abut 4 attempts a day so i doubt my site would be much use for testing…
