HELP!!!!

I woke up this morning to over 1000 threads created by spambots as GUESTS!!! My forum is already set to disable Guest posting. How are they getting around that to post if I have it set to disable? Thanks in advance!

Hi:

I think you should check usergroup for non registered user or user is waiting for confirmation and edit it there. Good luck.
