167	= How to protect sites from spam bots without CAPTCHA? =
168	- The most popular method is CAPTCHA - the annoying picture with curved and sloping symbols, which are presented to the visitor to decipher and fill in. It is supposed that spam bots won't discern these CAPTCHA, but a visitor will. CAPTCHA provokes great irritation, but if the visitor wants to comment, he has to fill in these symbols time after time, making mistakes and starting once again.
169	- Sometimes CAPTCHA reminds us of the doodles of a two year old child. For users with vision problems CAPTCHA is an insurmountable obstacle. Users hate captcha. Captcha for users means "hate". Unreadable CAPTCHA stops about 80% of site visitors. After 2 failed attempts to decipher CAPTCHA 95% of visitors reject further attempts. At the sight of CAPTCHA and after input errors, many visitors leave the resource. Thus, CAPTCHA helps to protect the resource both from bots and visitors. CAPTCHA is not a panacea from spam. Doubts concerning the Need for CAPTCHA?





170
171	“Ultimately, CAPTCHAs are useless for spam because they’re designed to tell you if someone is ‘human’ or not, but not whether something is spam or not.” Matt Mullenweg
172
173	You do not have to work in IT to know what spam is. Besides piles of unwanted email, there are spam bots, or special software programs designed to act as human website visitors that post unwelcome messages over the Internet to advertise dubious services. More often than not spam messages do not even make sense. Similar to bacteria and virus mutations developing antibiotic resistance, spam bots are becoming more resilient in penetrating Internet firewalls and security layers.
174
175	= CleanTalk's features =
176	- CleanTalk is one of the fastest plugins that allows you to lower the server load. One of the important parameters for each webmaster is the speed of the site, so we make sure that our plugin consumes as few server resources as possible. The Cloud Service provides the advantage: all data processing takes place in the Cloud.
177
178	- CleanTalk team has developed unique algorithms to assess visitors' behavior. CleanTalk analyzes user behavior and the parameters of the filled forms. Our anti-spam module, being installed in your website, sends the behavior parameters of either a visitor or a spam bot. When these parameters are estimated, the CleanTalk service makes a decision – to post a message or to define it as spam and reject it. Based on these checks, the service forms its own list of email addresses used by spam bots.




179
180	The registrations of visitors are being checked in a similar manner. The service adds to the blacklist not just email addresses, but also IP addresses and domains of websites that promote themselves through spam mailing. All of this happens automatically and requires no action from the administration of the website. In 2.5 million queries the service makes a mistake in 40-45 cases, i.e. CleanTalk detects spam with 99.9982% accuracy. We constantly monitor these errors and make adjustments to our algorithms. Even with this exceptional accuracy our team is aiming to improve the figures over time.
181
182	- All-in-one. CleanTalk protects all forms instantaneously — comments, registrations, feedback, contacts. No need to install additional plugins for each form. You save resources and increase performance of your website.
183
184	- Spam attacks log. ~~The~~ ~~service~~ CleanTalk records all filtered comments, registrations and other spam attacks in the “Log of spam attacks” and stores the data in the log for up to 45 days. Using the log, you can ensure reliable protection of your website from spam and experience no false/positive filtering.
185
186	- With the help of anti-spam by CleanTalk you can check existing comments and users, to find and quickly delete spam comments at once. This allows administrators of websites to automatically check and identify spam bots, comments and users, which were not detected by conventional anti-spam tools. The existing comments and users checking process is performed in a database of the nearly 2 million identified spam bots. Detailed statistics allows CleanTalk customers to fully control it.





187
188	CleanTalk has an advanced option “SpamFireWall”. This option allows you to block the most active spam bots before they get access to your website. It unloads you website pages when an attempt attack was made, so your web server won't run unnecessary scripts on these pages. Also it prevents any scanning of website pages by spam bots. Subsequently SpamFireWall significantly reduces your webserver load. SpamFireWall can mitigate HTTP/HTTPS DDoS attacks. When an intruder makes GET requests to attack your website, SpamFireWall will block requests from bad IP addresses. Your website gives the intruder a special page with a description of DDoS rejection instead of the website pages. SpamFireWall can help to reduce the CPU usage of your server because of this reason.

113	= How CleanTalk works? =
114	* A visitor writes a comment or registers
115	+ * Anti-Spam by CleanTalk plugin sends action parameters into the CleanTalk cloud
116	* Service analyzes the parameters
117	* If this is a visitor, the comment will be published. If it’s a spam bot, then CleanTalk blocks this comment or registration.
118	+ * Parameters are written to the spam log which can be viewed in the Control Panel service.
119
120	+ CleanTalk team has been developing a cloud antispam system for five years and has created a truly reliable anti-spam service designed for you to guarantee
121	your safety.

176
177	= How to protect sites from spam bots without CAPTCHA? =
178	+ The most popular anti spam method is CAPTCHA - the annoying picture with curved and sloping symbols, which are presented to the visitor to decipher and fill in. It is supposed that spam bots won't discern these CAPTCHA, but a visitor will. CAPTCHA provokes great irritation, but if the visitor wants to comment, he has to fill in these symbols time after time, making mistakes and starting once again.
179	+ Sometimes CAPTCHA reminds us of the doodles of a two year old child. For users
180	+ with vision problems CAPTCHA is an insurmountable obstacle. Users hate
181	+ captcha. Captcha for users means "hate". Unreadable CAPTCHA stops about 80% of
182	+ site visitors. After 2 failed attempts to decipher CAPTCHA 95% of visitors
183	+ reject further attempts. At the sight of CAPTCHA and after input errors, many
184	+ visitors leave the resource. Thus, CAPTCHA helps to protect the resource spam both from bots and visitors. CAPTCHA is not a panacea from spam. Doubts concerning the Need for CAPTCHA?
185
186	“Ultimately, CAPTCHAs are useless for spam because they’re designed to tell you if someone is ‘human’ or not, but not whether something is spam or not.” Matt Mullenweg
187
188	You do not have to work in IT to know what spam is. Besides piles of unwanted email, there are spam bots, or special software programs designed to act as human website visitors that post unwelcome messages over the Internet to advertise dubious services. More often than not spam messages do not even make sense. Similar to bacteria and virus mutations developing antibiotic resistance, spam bots are becoming more resilient in penetrating Internet firewalls and security layers.
189
190	= CleanTalk's features =
191	+ Anti-Spam by CleanTalk is one of the fastest plugins that allows you to lower the server load. One of the important parameters for each webmaster is the speed of the site, so we make sure that our plugin consumes as few server resources as possible. The Cloud Service provides the advantage: all data processing takes place in the Cloud.
192
193	+ CleanTalk team has developed unique anti spam algorithms to assess visitors'
194	+ behavior. CleanTalk analyzes user behavior and the parameters of the filled
195	+ forms. Our anti-spam module, being installed in your website, sends the
196	+ behavior parameters of either a visitor or a spam bot. When these parameters
197	+ are estimated, the anti spam service makes a decision – to post a message or to define it as spam and reject it. Based on these checks, the service forms its own list of email addresses used by spam bots.
198
199	The registrations of visitors are being checked in a similar manner. The service adds to the blacklist not just email addresses, but also IP addresses and domains of websites that promote themselves through spam mailing. All of this happens automatically and requires no action from the administration of the website. In 2.5 million queries the service makes a mistake in 40-45 cases, i.e. CleanTalk detects spam with 99.9982% accuracy. We constantly monitor these errors and make adjustments to our algorithms. Even with this exceptional accuracy our team is aiming to improve the figures over time.
200
201	+ All-in-one. CleanTalk protects form spam all forms instantaneously — comments, registrations, feedback, contacts. No need to install additional plugins for each form. You save resources and increase performance of your website.
202
203	+ Spam attacks log. Anti-Spam by CleanTalk records all filtered comments, registrations and other spam attacks in the “Log of spam attacks” and stores the data in the log for up to 45 days. Using the log, you can ensure reliable protection of your website from spam and experience no false/positive filtering.
204
205	+ With the help of anti-spam by CleanTalk you can check existing comments and
206	+ users, to find and quickly delete spam comments at once. This allows
207	+ administrators of websites to automatically check and identify spam bots,
208	+ comments and users, which were not detected by conventional anti-spam tools.
209	+ The existing comments and users checking process is performed in a database of
210	+ the nearly 2 million identified spam bots. Detailed spam stats allows CleanTalk customers to fully control it.
211
212	CleanTalk has an advanced option “SpamFireWall”. This option allows you to block the most active spam bots before they get access to your website. It unloads you website pages when an attempt attack was made, so your web server won't run unnecessary scripts on these pages. Also it prevents any scanning of website pages by spam bots. Subsequently SpamFireWall significantly reduces your webserver load. SpamFireWall can mitigate HTTP/HTTPS DDoS attacks. When an intruder makes GET requests to attack your website, SpamFireWall will block requests from bad IP addresses. Your website gives the intruder a special page with a description of DDoS rejection instead of the website pages. SpamFireWall can help to reduce the CPU usage of your server because of this reason.
213

226	= Requirements =
227	WordPress 3.0 at least. PHP 5 with CURL or file_get_contents() function and enabled 'allow_url_fopen' setting. <a href="http://cleantalk.org/register?platform=wordpress">Sign up</a> to get an Access key.
228
229	+ = Free trial then $8 per year =

234

295	The plugin passes pingbacks without any checks by default. All trackbacks will be blocked if the sender had spam activity.
296
297	= Can I use CleanTalk with Akismet? =
298	+ Sure, you can use CleanTalk with Akismet. In this case you will probably have higher false/positive rate (when legitimate comments/signups are being denied), but you will have stronger anti-spam protection on your website.
299
300	= Is CleanTalk better than Akismet? =
301	Please look at this features comparison here https://cleantalk.org/cleantalk-vs-akismet

319	= Is the plugin compatible with WordPress MultiUser (WPMU or WordPress network)? =
320	Yes, the plugin is compatible with WordPress MultiUser. Each blog in multisite environment has individual anti-spam options for the protection from spam bots.
321
322	+ = After the installation I noticed that the number of spam attacks has been increased in the stats =
323	There are a few reasons for this:
324
325	* With the indexing of your web-site by the search systems, appearance of external links and better search results position, your web-site attracts more and more spambots.
326	+ * Non-transparent protection systems like CAPTCHA or question/answer, that don't have spam attacks stats, don't let you see the whole picture, or the picture is incomplete.
327	+ * Counting methods for spam attacks and spam bots are different for different systems, thus the diversity appears. We seek to provide detailed stats.
328
329	= Why my dummy "spam" comment passed to the WordPress? =
330	The plugin has several options to detect spam bots and humans. If you just post spammy text like this:

495	== Screenshots ==
496	1. AntiSpam settings.
