Well, I'm not sure when or if I'll get around to updating this. Now that I think about it I don't think the vb3 version is even up to date with the vb4 version. But in case this helps, a while back I wanted to know the same thing. I was wondering if spammers were registering by making many guesses of the questions or if they somehow knew the answers. So I found the section of code that checked the answer, and I edited the file and put in code to write information to a log file. But I guess you have to be able to do at least basic php programming to do that.

I'm going to think about that. Maybe it's possible to make a simple mod for that that wouldn't require file edits.
