A spammer got through for a minute or so.

He is no longer with us.

Grawr.

Okay, I vaporized the accounts.  Dune has vaporized the posts (Thanks Dune).

I'm kinda tired so I am not being proper and chasing upgrades tonight, but I'll chase it tomorrow.  Hopefully it won't be too bad for another day @_@

Thanks Drac.

By the way, that 2.1 beta's not meant for live forums. I read up on it and it really is a beta.

Updated one layer of our anti-spammer protection and renewed our setup with honeypot.

I'm re-enabling registration, but am also a sleepy admin at the moment, so if things start getting noisy again help make sure I spot it.

Okay, now changing our questions and switching to Re-captcha.  Let's see if this helps at all :(

Let me know if anyone spots spammers again.

And now with a few more anti-spam mods installed.

Here's hoping.
