In Response To: Capatcha (Steve MacLellan)

Hi Steve,
I too seem to have one persistent pest (yeah, I know; "One? You're lucky!) who sends me up to 10 spams a day through my on-line web form; all exactly the same except for each one comes from a different, obviously computer-generated, address. If you don't like Capatcha, what would you suggest I do to remove this pest's spam???
Many thanks in advance for any suggested link or helpful comment!!!
Andy.
