aspx script not picking up comment spammers

Author: M.Ball2 (26 Dec 10 1:34pm)

Hi

My aspx honey pot script is continually getting hit by comment spammers (several per day). However, I don't think any of the data is getting back to Project HP because .NET 4.0 is raising HttpRequestValidationException errors when data is posted back which are then bubbling up to my error handler.

I have tried turning this off by inserting a ValidateRequest = "false" in the page directive but this then causes an illegal checksum in the Project HP script.

Anyone got any ideas? Seems pointless having the honeypot if the data is not getting back to Project HP.

Cheers
