I tried hard to imrove the security of the registration process to avoid bots... Looks like Ive managed to set the activation image hard enough for bots but still easy enough for human beings.
As a result of this action there was no bot registered in the last 2 days... (it was 30 / day before:D)
Please try to live with the harder registration image:)

Re: Recent security improvement
Nice image, I just miss the letters and numbers from it. 
For another forum (HU forum, you can check it:)) I installed Anti-Spam ACP mod, which can create a pre-CAPTCHA test before the registration process (so there are two CAPTCHAs) - it has many other functions as well -, and since then, there are no bot registrations either. (And the image doesn't have to be that blurred.) (Before that, there were 1-2 a day..)

Re: Recent security improvement
I went through 4 misses to get the correct code.
It's hard but doable.

Yeah thats why I made the post... You only had to fight it once (when you resiter), but it keeps bots away:D
