Agree. I was also hit by a couple of spam bots yesterday which seemed like a spam bot invasion to me.

I didn't install any additional anti-spam bot addons etc. just to see how those spam bot work. Yesterday was the 1st time my vb forum got attacked by those spam morons.

Guys, I did some research.

I found that spammers use this tool

*** Link removed, please do not link to spam software. ***

It's free to try, at least we can learn the tool so we can defeat it.

Later

well i am glad it is not only my site. between 11pm last night and 7 am this morning i deleted 12 new accounts.

i have questions that you need to answer. but not specific like what is the 3rd key on teh top row type. but like Real Name, make of car and such, the default answer is "TEST" so i search for new accounts with TEST as the real name..

i just turned off new registrations for now. maybe that'll do something.
