Vbulletin...Spam issue

    How do you guys prevent SPAM? I am so curious about how to prevent SPAM on Vbulletin??? I get users that register all the time (dozens by the day even)...Is there a way around this crap? Thanks for the help... Stupid Bots. I hear rumors about a 3.7 coming out to prevent this stuff? Is it true, if so do you know when it will be released? I just upgraded to the current 3.6.8 but it really doesnt do anything "different" to help.
