also, and Im sure some may disagree, turn off email verification, Ive seen the bot software in action, they monitor the email account, wait for the verification email, verify the account, then spam your site, if verification is turned off, the email is never sent.

Well, I tried various Image Verification settings and it didn't seem to do much good.
However, when I tried this it seems to have stopped the suckers dead in their tracks! I simply entered in a very simple arithmetic question and not one spammer in my email verification in 24 hours! http://www.vbulletin.com/forum/showthread.php?t=205214

No need to turn off the email verification!
Simply do this:

Set these options to 'NO' for Unregistered, Users Awaiting and COPPA usergroups:
Can Use Email to Friend
Can Email Members
