Hi there, thanks very much for this module, it's extremely important.

Just to let you know that StopForumSpam.com appears to support IPv6 now. If you search for 2001: in the database there are tons of entries.

Just as IPv6 is getting more common, spam coming from IPv6 addresses is also much more common now.

Thanks a lot.

Thanks very much!
I'm a bit confused, the current 7.x-1.x-dev version still says:

   // Make sure we have a valid IPv4 address (API doesn't support IPv6 yet).
    if (filter_var($ip, FILTER_VALIDATE_IP, FILTER_FLAG_IPV4 | FILTER_FLAG_IPV6) === FALSE) {
      watchdog('spambot', 'Invalid IP address on registration: @ip. Spambot will not rely on it.', array('@ip' => $ip));
