NoBot

[Hostmaster]

Any one having Problems caused by the New NoBot control on the checkout page?

We are in a Natted environment device and it seems that the NoBot control kicks off way to often.

Ok anyone running in a Natted environment?

If anyone else is having this trouble, please tack on to this thread. The symptom would be that the checkout page claims you are a bot or a spider, when you are not.

I just upgraded a site to 7.0.2, and while trying to test orders, I get the Bot/Spider message 2 out of 3 times. I'm placing the orders on the server from a workstation, I am logged in as admin. I tried it from another workstation, not logged in as admin, and also got the message.

Is there a place to make adjustments, turn it off, or a way to exclude admins?

We just upgraded our company site to 7.0.3 and I had Nobot trouble, even though it looks like the patch from this thread is already implemented.
It happens when I try to pay with the purchase order method- when I put "test" into the PO box, I get the Bot activity detected message. Happens when I select "mail" also. It didn't happen with charge card.

We are natted.

I experience this intermittently when processing orders as a PO. Only time I've run into this is when I'm inside a client's account creating an order for them, I haven't had any complaints from customers who are checking out on their own.

We just had complaints from a client about this. I don't know any of the details, though. We've started taking it off new sites.
