    Hi I put a button for Login/registration on the homepage, and just after got some spammer registration… how could this be prevented? Are they ‘humans’ or bots? Thanks 🙂

    how could this be prevented?

    Try adding a “nofollow” tag to your registration link. eg:

    <a href=”YOUR LINK” rel=”nofollow”>BUTTON</a>

    The spammers are probably a combination of both humans and bots; I see that you’ve posted a reply in the CAPTCHA forum thread, which is also a good place to look for advice.
