I am running Anti Bot Question MOD 2.0.1 on phpBB 2.0.22. Since originally installing it a year ago, the massive amount of spam posts received on our board was reduced to zero. Brilliant.

The code which has appeared on your site, appears on a number of others which are not running PHPbb2. It is possible therefore that the issue is not one of PHPbb.
