I have a script on my site that allows users to send me an email through a contact form... The problem is it seems that there is something (I assume a spider) abusing it and sending lots of emails --> over one hundred.

Is there any way I can stop this?

Either build in a user agent check, a random number check or an empty field check.

Hotscripts.com and get an email validation script or one that requires users type the corresponding numbers.
