    Hello Everyone,

    My webmaster forum: http://www.incomediary.com/forums gets a lot of daily spam accounts register and then a few posts but not many of them actually post. I would like to stop this from happening and would like to hire someone to fix it.

    Please let me know your solution, how long it will take and how much.

    You must be able to start in the next 24 hours.

    Michael

    There are many anti-spam measurements that can be taken. First of all try putting in image verification. Also goto vbulletin.org and search for anti-spam plugins :)

    What are the plugins that you are currently using?
    Do you see a trend in the spam you recieve i.e. same topics or same websites?

    You must moderate the registrations. Thats what I have done in my warez forum.
