I've noticed some on some of our sites. I'm not sure of its status, but I believe captcha module provides for captcha points to include the contact form. -Laura On May 7, 2007, at 1:44 PM, blogdiva@culturekitchen.com wrote:

OK. Maybe you kan put your "/contact/feed" I`m not sure that this will work out, but try it in your Robots.txt: * My robots.txt. * # $Id: robots.txt,v 1.7 2007/01/08 12:02:18 dries Exp $ # # robots.txt # # This file is to prevent the crawling and indexing of certain parts # of your site by web crawlers and spiders run by sites like Yahoo! # and Google.

One small change we made stopped nearly all the spam we were getting - not sure if it will work for you though... We removed the default category from the form. If a visitor doesn't specifically pick one of our site specific categories, the form doesn't work. -- Cheers Anton
