Spammers are back
« on: November 11, 2008, 10:06:27 AM »
I've gotten notifications (through RSS) of six spams posted in the last 12 hours, each from a different new user if I'm not mistaken.  Has the forum software been compromised or is this just a matter of needing a CAPTCHA in the signup process?

I am trying to combat them. I have just upgraded the forum. Will look into the sign-up process and see what I can do there.
