They've defeated NoSpam! and now, unfortunately, it's worthless in its present form. Captcha works fine and is effetive, but you must have true type fonts enabled.

thats not true... I have true type fonts enabled, and I have still been getting tons of bots registering our forum. They have gotten around NoSpam! and Captcha....

I get several spammers per day and this feature does nothing to slow them down. Any suggestions on a really good question and answer?

I've used simple math questions. e.g. What is 5+7?:12 or Please type "Boss302" into the following field.:Boss302

This is not working. Any suggestions? Also, most of my spammers register with the birthday of January 1, 1980

Hey USA - I wrote an article on managing registration spam in vbulletin that you might find interesting, including some benchmarking:

I really need a mod like this. Even with the Captcha I get an obnoxious among of spam and I was really hoping this would do the trick, but I've upgraded to 3.8, had a template written for it, and this doesn't appear to work with it. I installed it, did the set up, but it doesn't appear anywhere.

Thanks!

That's probably part of your problem. Math questions, or putting you answer into the question itself are easily bypassed by bots. You're giving the bot the answer. Questions need to be simple questions that a bot can't guess. Like "What color is the sky?" or (since you can use HTML in the questions) "What color is this picture?" Don't put the answer anywhere in your question or in your HTML and don't use math questions. Just use simple, first grade questions that don't have a lot of variable answers.
