New forum registrations temporarily halted

[Susan_A]

Just an FYI for anyone who might be trying to register a new forum account: we've temporarily halted new registrations due to an influx of spam and spammers. Our forum admin will take a look at this issue on Monday and decide on the best approach to deal with it. We expect to allow registrations again sometime next week.

We had to restore a forum backup yesterday as well, so some new forum topics may have been lost. If your topic was affected, please post it again.

We've enabled registrations again. We did opt to no longer allow registrations from free email domains including (but not limited to) @gmail.com, @yahoo.com and @hotmail.com, as a way to combat spam.

Just a heads up: we've unfortunately had to disable registrations again, due to more spam. We're looking into additional spam measures and are hoping to re-enable registrations within the next few weeks.

If you have a Lansweeper related question or issue and don't have a forum account yet, please send your question to support@lansweeper.com for now and we will answer it via email.

We implemented some new spam measures and have re-enabled registrations now.

Cheers for the information, a friend was trying to register last night and couldn't.

I will let them know.

Cheers.
