Hello,
I had massive spam atack lately. So I decide to try Glow Ghost. Is there option somewhere to check the forum for spam being posted before?
I have VB4

Spam-o-matic filters based on user registrations. Anything that has already happened is a done deal. If you find users who have spammed in posts or just by the content of their sig file, you can use the spam-o-matic menu in the user profile to ban them and submit their info to the stopforumspam database. As far as I know, weeding out existing spam users is a manual process.

is there some other feature for vBulletin that can do it?
I would like it to deleted spamthreads and check for spam users because I not know where from there is registred 18K users. I m sure 99.9% or those are spambots.

You can use spam-o-matic its functions to prevent them from making more spam posts.
Unfortunately no functionality exists to find and remove spammer accounts.
