Tuesday, 30 May 2006 This is the second of hacks for components and modules integrating the Simple Captcha class to make Limbo forms more spam resistant and secure. This hack of the contact component has been made to be more secure using three (3) methods of checking the information entered into the contact form by users. First, the Simple Captcha has been integrated into the contact component to at least minimize if not eradicate spam. Second, file extensions of attachment files are checked then compared to a valid list of files extensions. Third, the attachment files are checked if these are valid image files. The valid file extensions for attachment files are jpg, png and gif. If a user tries to attach a file with a different extension, a pop up message of invalid file is displayed. If a user will try to attach a script file masquerading as an image file, the third function will be able to catch it up as an invalid image file in which case the attachment file will automatically be deleted. A pop-up message of invalid image file will likewise be displayed. Note:
