Why do I constantly get members joining my site with names like FreeFileSharing, or RemoteFileSharing. They join all three of my vb sites within about 30 minutes of each other but never once post. They always use gmail accounts and never verify their email. Is there some sort of scam I am unknowingly being subjected to? This has happened about 8 times in the past month.

you should enable image verification while registration, that prevents those script registrations

I have image verification set to yes in Registration Options. Do I need something else set?

Nevermind, I forgot to tell it what version of GD I had in image settings. Thanks

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