Try this:

Find in includes/functions_vbsfs.php:

PHP Code:

    // todo handle the null error results.
    $result = checkSFSSpam($username, 'username');
    if ($result !== VBSFS_NO_TEST) {        
        sfsActions('username', $username, $username, $email,$ip, $result);     
                } 


Comment out those lines, i.e., change to:

PHP Code:

    // todo handle the null error results.
    // $result = checkSFSSpam($username, 'username');
    // if ($result !== VBSFS_NO_TEST) {        
    //     sfsActions('username', $username, $username, $email,$ip, $result); 
    // }
