For an instant result install the "Is bot" mod, its great at stopping 99.9% if your getting loads of bot sign ups then this will definately stop the good bulk of them

Yes Indeed, another great addition in the fight against the spammer, once you have 2 or 3 mods installed you'll definately notice the difference.
