Spammers on my business forum

    I created a new forum (in sig) and keep getting spammers. I know this is probably the usual, but I have two others and neither of those have really been targetted much by spam. Is this just chance, or did this install of VB miss something?

    Do you have a secure question or Captcha?

    Captcha is pretty much useless these days.

    Yeah I've got a random question on there :(

    I don't think the people I've been pruning are bots. I think they are people manually dropping a few links on there.
