Auto-delete user @ registration time.

Working on a technique to detect the spam-user sign-ups and code to auto-delete the new user.
I've tested a little and this seems to work, but wanted to know if there is something more I should do during the delete process.

Here is the code I'm using in hook:register_addmember_complete

PHP Code:


		
			
if ($is_spam_user)

{ 

  process_logout();

  $userdm =& datamanager_init('User', $vbulletin, ERRTYPE_STANDARD);

  $userdm->set_existing($vbulletin->userinfo);

  $userdm->delete();

  unset($userdm);

}

I found that I needed to add the process_logout() so that if the user returned to the home-page before the session expired I was getting a DBError (query was missing a userid in where clause).

I'm wondering if there is anything more I need to do when deleting a user?
And/or maybe there is a better way??

Any thoughts/comments/suggestions/etc...welcome!
Thanks,
-Jimmy

That's pretty much what you have to do. Although you should probably find a hook before user data has been added so you don't have to delete the user.
