hello!

I am a complete dummie in this matter, but I hope to get an answer I can understand. For the first time since I am using Coppermine with a comment-possibility ( 1/2 year) I am getting now "comments" of this sick people: spammers. I closed down this feature but I am afraid now that they will find another way. Can somebody give me an advice?
Thanks

Search the forum for "comment spam" or "captcha" and you will get your answer.
