I put a relatively simple maths problem as part of the new user registration. Complete
elimination of spammers. New members do not have a problem registering. Make the
problem simple but with 5 or more steps e.g 5 +13 -7 *2 -2 * 0 =??

Sarcasm?

If so, I did link modifications on there as well. And if you want more information on spam, do a search.... you'll find plenty

^^^ I don't think he was sarcastic, I think he simply refered to options that should have been set right at the begining. If anything, I appreciate your link because I have the same problem. I set image verification with 4 of the 5 boxes if this doesn't stop the spam I'll do question and answer and block mail.ru
