Bot's are over flooding my site... HELP!
 
So I have added a lot of bot protection to my forum, and the last few weeks I've had like 20 of them sign up, I know it takes them awhile to get in, but they are getting in, any recommendations? I own a Christian forum, and when you get a "Penis Enlargement" bot signing up on an all Christian woman forum, it just kinda doesn't seem right.

What 'bot protection' have you added?

Have you read this thread - http://www.vbulletin.com/forum/showthread.php?t=275800

Enhanced Captcha Image Verification

Captcha and images don't work very well. Security questions work the best.

Agree with above, Question and answer are the best.

I was getting 20-30 per day and the question and answer procedure stopped all of them.
