During the last few days I've banned some new registered users because it was very clear they where spammers.
Yesterday I come across the following site that helped me to decide if to ban or not some users:
http://www.stopforumspam.com/

They also developed a simple API to get online responses in simple way: http://www.stopforumspam.com/apis

Maybe it can help others.

This forum has now a new Anti-bot automatic registration measure.
When new user try to register, some random math or other kind of questions are requested. If wrong answer, no registration.

Hope it will avoid some of recent spammer registrations.
