I think I may have a clue how the individual registered without answering the mandatory field questions. I believe they used ForumRunner to complete the registration.

I have since disabled ForumRunners ability to allow registrations.

There is also a mysterious entry in the server error log at the same minute of the registration, which is raising an eyebrow. I believe this is a reference to spambot stopper from KH99, and its check of new registrations.

[02-Aug-2013 15:42:10] PHP Fatal error: Call to undefined function kh99_sbs_process() in /home/??blankedout??/public_html/forumrunner/include/login.php(386) : eval()'d code on line 8

Harmless error?
