form spam

OK  have someone spamming my site through a form.

I do not have any header injection going on, so this is only annoying inhouse...

I am not sure what they are doing. I was trying to track IPs, but this morning they submitted 7 spam requests in 20 seconds from 7 different IPs - So I am guessing that they did not just write a simple program to just send requests from a single IP

All the hidden inputs and stuff were in place so I can not use something like that to flag them as spam.

I would really not like to go captcha, so I was just wondering if I could find out how they are spamming me, maybe I can flag some as spam.

Why don't you want to use captchas?

You could impliment a time-delay between posts. I did that with one site whre they can only post 1 msg per day kinda deal and it would keep track of IPs. Though if they are using multiple IPs, then you might have to figure something else out like set a cookie when they post and then look for that cookie. If they dont' accept cookies then don't let them post on the form.
