PHPlist subscription spam and Bad Behaviour mod

Re: Bad Behaviour (http://www.bad-behavior.ioerror.us/) anti-spam mod doesn't seem to work on Bluehost

I recently moved to Bluehost.com. I had tried to port over my PHPlist from my old host, but had some trouble. So finally I did a fresh install of PHPlist (using SimpleScripts), imported the data I'd backed up from the old host (using PHPMyAdmin), and everything works fine, except that I'm getting lots of "spam" sign-ups to my mailing list. (174 in the past 12 hours).

So I installed the Bad Behaviour (http://www.bad-behavior.ioerror.us/) anti-spam mod. It had worked great on my old host, completely eliminated the spam-subscription problem, but now, on Bluehost, enabling Bad Behaviour causes my subscribe pages not to work (they appear as blank screens).

For now, I'll disable Bad Behavior so my list will work, but I really need to get it fixed (or find another anti-form-spam solution).

Any ideas?

My error, apparently...:eek:
The Bad Behavior script references a file in directory
/list/admin/Bad-Behavior/but the actual directory on the server was named
/list/admin/bad-behavior/(lower-case "b"s)

Don't know how I did that, but once I renamed the directory, the subscribe pages work.

BTW - in the time it took to resolve this issue (about 36 hours), I got over 500 spam signups to my mailing list. (Sheesh! Is this normal?)

With Bad Behavio (http://www.bad-behavior.ioerror.us)r enabled I get ZERO. BB works with PHPlist, Wordpress, phpBB, Joomla!, MediaWiki and lots of other blogs, CMSs and such. If you have a problem with form-spam, I seriously recommend this mod.
