For example this robot is shown as guest:
Guest Registering... 06:44 PM 195.96.183.2

He's registering almost every day and guess what did I found out? It's a ROBOT! A search engine robot, that scans my board. Is there any way to recognize him as a robot?

His IP address, among other things. It's not hurting anything, but if it's a problem, ban him via a .htaccess file.

Filburt, a lot of robots come every day.
Do I have to ban all of them? It's no good solution, I think.

It's a very bad idea to do that. You'll block search engine bots, and your site won't get listed on search engines.

That's why I want to them BE RECOGNZED, not banned. They're no guest also ...

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