: Spam Registrations

(I know this is generally a Joomla issue and not a Shape5 issue, just thought I'd ask here).

All of a sudden, over the last week, several of my clients' sites have been getting spam registrations from some sort of tag line "Viagra without a doctors prescription".
All of the joomla and Vertex installations are UTD, as well as the site using the base registration w/ reCaptcha 2.0 (the click the box one).

Just wondering if there was anyone else here having this issue (or know how to prevent / fix this issue) ?


Thanks

Hello,

If they are getting past captcha I am not sure. Do you have the S5 Register module published? Sometimes people hide it by taking away the "register" link but don't actually unpublish it. I would suggest checking that.
