Unable to submit Spam Data from server

Beginning yesterday, my server is no longer able to submit spam data. The error message returned is:

The owner of this website (www.stopforumspam.com) has banned your access based on your browser's signature

So what's going on?

Re: Unable to submit Spam Data from server

We were being DDoSed and had to take action to stop it.  This got caught up in the mess but I will fix it.  It's not just you, it's impacting everyone.  I'll try to get this fixed asap

Re: Unable to submit Spam Data from server

I have been able to submit, recently. Can't speak for any one else though.
It seems to be working ok, now. Also have been able to search and check IP,e-mail, usernames ok now.
Thanks

Re: Unable to submit Spam Data from server

I am one of the Admins over at sundance communications. For a while now, my submissions are not being added to the SFS database.

When I press the Submit button, it shows "Submitted!", but, nothing else happens.  Mike Schmidt, the site's owner, said he updated the API key....but....that didn't change anything.

I don't have access to the site's server, so, I'm limited as to what I can check.

Re: Unable to submit Spam Data from server

Can you confirm the section of PHP code that you're using to submit please?

does it build a fsocket and use that or does it use curl?

Re: Unable to submit Spam Data from server

I've just downgraded the webserver.  Can you confirm if you're still getting issues please?

Re: Unable to submit Spam Data from server

This is the PHP version that we are using - PHP Version 5.3.3

the section of PHP code that you're using to submit please?

I will need to get that info from UBB and get back to you.

Re: Unable to submit Spam Data from server

I can't submit from the gunnerinc program or by coming to the site and adding spam data.  The data I tried to add is as follows
User id: Terry & Kelly
Number of posts: Junior Member     0         
email: brian@lawyersfortexans.com
spam: http://www.lawyersfortexans.com/
IP: 87.160.20.177
IP Server: CableLink-187-160-20-177.PCs.InterCable.net
Origin: mexico
Ban reason: seo spam in profile
Usually I just submit username, ip, email and the spam, and sometimes a description.

When I check "my spammers" - it doesn't show up.
There is no reason for texan lawyers to be joining an Australian dog forum other than SEO spam - and the spam is not from texas anyway.

Re: Unable to submit Spam Data from server

There seems to be a current site problem. I've PM'd + emailed Ped with details.

Re: Unable to submit Spam Data from server

Spam submission through webform succeeds but does not appear in "My spammers" for me either.

All of this mornings (from 6am UTC) have been replayed.  1/2 of yesterdays has been added and the rest will appear shortly

Downloadable files are being processed now as well, and will show new content

Thank you.  It's all good now.

PS I ended up with three submissions for one spammer - so I went and cleaned that up
