spaces between letters creating problem !

[GouroB]

ok as i said in topic ... lemme explain a bit
we were having some damn fanatic's who were doing advertising for other servers but this time they r using Spaces in their text , and for that spamfilters r not working . lemme first give u the add text they were using ...

15,014,06,0 Join W W W . B D F E A . C O M 14,015,0

i used this spamfilter below
/spamfilter add cpnN block - advertiser .*BD.*FEA.*

didnt work .... any idea ?

If there's a spacer between every letter, why didn't you add this to your spamfilter (only between BD and FEA?)?

.*B.*D.*F.*E.*A.*

Dukat ,
yes i did that too but that been blocking normal text of the pplz too ... lemme give u a example .

@Spamfiler[23:40] -abc.zxc.com- [Spamfilter] SeenServ![email protected] matches filter '.*B.*D.*F.*E.*A.*N.*E.*T.*': [NOTICE Mr_Risk_free_Lover_31DHK: 'I found 3 matches to your query: lili, AXE, Love_For_All. lili ([email protected]) was last seen joining #bangladesh 37 seconds ago (08.03. 17:39). lili is still there.'] [advertiser]

and like this pplz normal text also was being blocked becoz of that .

use:

.?B.?D.?F.?E.?A.?N.?E.?T.?

[Syzop]

This is what I personally would use (well, the regex):

Code: Select all

/spamfilter add cpnN block - advertiser w.*w.*w.*\..*b.*d.*f.*e.*a.*\..*c.*o.*m

(perhaps next time they will use 2 or 3 spaces ;p)

[edit]
Perhaps it's worth explaining how to do this for people who are not familiar with regexes (actually you should check the online docs -> regex section ;p):
first the url:

Code: Select all

www.bdfea.com

but you need to escape . to \., so:

Code: Select all

www\.bdfea\.com

then you just insert .* after each letter (and in the case of \., after that)

Code: Select all

w.*w.*w.*\..*b.*d.*f.*e.*a.*\..*c.*o.*m

and that would be your regex.

[aquanight]

If they really are only using spaces you can use this regex:

Code: Select all

w *w *w *\. *b *d *f *e *a *\. *c *o *m

(However, it is possible that there's actually a letter there hidden by a color code, in which case syzop's regex works better )

His also stops possible future permutations

lol thx guys thats y i love this forum so much :D
i added both syzop's and aquanight's spamfilter , u know security first ... result was good , i caught many fishes doing that .

[Dukat]

i added both syzop's and aquanight's spamfilter , u know security first ...

Syzop's regex matches everything aquanight's does, so adding only Syzop's would have been enough...
