Guys, when you delete the accounts, make sure you select the option to remove the topics and posts at the same time. Make the clean up a whole lot easier.

Can you tell me what section the spam has been in this time? I set new registrations to only have access to the "Introduce Yourself" section.

Yes it does seem that way. Another bug to fix  ???

If you get bored, have a look through the members list (sort by website) and hover your mouse over the website link. There are lots of accounts that have been created in the past in an attempt to advertise. Any that are obviously spam, delete the account. Just be sure they have no posts.
