 * Hi All
 * I an getting inundated with users registering on my site which are obviously 
   spam. They seem to register as subscribers and i am spending ages deleting them
   all. I am running hashcash but seems to only help with spam comments. I am on
   a self hosted .org site. Any ideas anyone?
