I use a form to help injured visitor dealing with insurance problems.
Since about 6 month this help form is spamed every day, and the
corresponding form result page grows.

I'm not able to program at all. I have tryed to figure out any relation
according to IP adresses, but it change from post to post. All of theire
Forename are starting with Sandra-

They look as below:
------------------------------------------

If you are using FrontPage extensions to process the form there is
little you can do.

If the form results are sent by email you could set up a rule that sends
"Sandra's" responses to the junk mail folder - either on the server (if
the server supports this) or in your own email client. - The rule will
be similar to
"If email-body contains 'Sandra-' then move to JunkMail folder", though
you will have to check the Junk Mail for responses from genuine Sandras.

You could add a simple captcha like device to block the spam, using
FrontPage validation to check the response, but this will fail if
"Sandra" has Javascript disabled.

If you could use server side scripting then validation would be done on
the server, blocking automatic spambots, but not blocking manual
spammers.

may give you some ideas.

Yes - I use the FP form.
Any tip about any other form to use? Maybe a free one...?

Thanks / Tomas
