How could they skip registration? Does anyone know how this is possible?
Maybe there's a bug in the forums software? All new updates installed etc?
No YoWindow-Bug but: spammers reached the forum

Hey!
Unfortunately spammers use automatic software that is able to bypass user verification process (Captcha).
The version of phpBB our forum runs on is a bit old and the verification process is quite naive there.
At the moment I have to delete the spam by myself.
I will upgrate our forum soon to the new version that has strong spam blocking support, this should take away most spammers.
