Yes :o)

It's back up by the way. I've implemented some form of scanning (to prevent, for example.. deep linking Jives, or jives to other short url services). Still haven't done the strip tags thing, need to look that up.

Also the subnet / ip blocking stuff might be useful to know about still...

Hi mate,

Why would I not like that?! Only question is, *how* do I do that?!

Do you have control of the server the site is hosted on?

I have a bigger problem.

I've had an email from Tonic.to (the registrars) saying that they've had complaints about spam from the domain. Technically the spam isn't from the domain, but people are using Jive.to URLs and sending the links in spam messages.

Now, as far as I can work out, there's no way for me to stop that, and it would be VERY difficult to filter out dodgy domains?! I can't imagine that is possible... any thoughts?!

i know your not going to like it but i would say that you would have to start domain and IP "maybe even subnet" blocking if you want to avoid being shut down, but there maybe a better way out there, keep looking as well

Thanks for the tip!

I'm actually using PHP for this project, so strip_tags() is usuable. Could you point me to some information regarding how to avoid the injection attacks you speak of!?

strip_tags() will take care of it. Im happy i could help.

someone may have told you and/or you may not care but your app allows entering of junk and code injection, i would have the app see if it can connect to target before adding it to the db and offering up a url, also strip_tags() is your friend if asp has that kinda thing
