As you probably guessed I have spam bots registering on my website. They have always same default birthday. It is annoying to delete them every day.
Is there any way prevent submit registration if they have this magic birthday. I believe it would solve my problem until they figure out the way to register with different date.

Anyone? Thanks

I would just use another means, I use Check 4 Spam which prevents almost every single spam bot from posting anything without approval. Also, One touch spam ban and clean is a good mod to rid of all user data when they get through.

I use vBStopForumSpam, and it works great. Look for those spammers to post from a similar IP, or post odd things in their profile fields (e.g. URLs in odd places).

NoSpam! Seems to work extremely well too as well as Enhanced Image Captcha.

It is not a VB3 engine, just a parsed copy!
