Default Help needed please...

Hi there, I am running vbadvancedl v2.2.1 and I have a massive spammer problem.
I think I need to do 2 things, firstly I need to find a way of keeping the spammers out, and secondly I need to send all members a PM which they have to reply to to keep there account.
Can some one point me in the right direction please. My site is a free site and I don't make money from it, so if some one could help me rather then charge me it would be most appreciated.
Thanks for your time. T

Anti Spam: http://www.vbulletin.com/docs/html/o...pam_management and https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showthread.php?t=230921 and http://www.vbulletin.com/docs/html/usergroup_promotions to promote non spammers after X posts.

Mass PM: https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showthread.php?t=141622 (mixed reviews on whether it works on vB4 though)

There are probably other options around too.
