SpambotCheck is a small, concise and most importantly a non-invasive plugin, that already offers you about 99.5% efficiency in spam attack protection. The plugin does not need to inspect any contents and therefore is suitable in all situations where there is not any mail text or submission text available.
And even if you are dealing with text submission in forums and blogs, as long as registration and/or login is required, you might consider to use SpambotCheck in combination with additional content analyzing tools that run afterwards. SpambotCheck would then be acting as the outer most tier of any composed spam protection stack that provides you with the highest site protection level possible.
A special version of SpambotCheck is already bundled with our free custom form creator Visforms to protect all your exposed custom made forms right from the start.
