I've changed it to one of those impossible image ones. I've installed a forum spambot user checker which checks against a spam registrar for common forum spammers.

Has it got to the time frame where "newsbys" - (spamming low life scum) that post new topics are vetted first before being let to post straight onto the site.
It will control the current aseholes who are flooding the site

Kricky....
Admin i think you need to close the site down until there are systems in place to control this lastest 3 to 4 days of spam.

Send an email with a new log in or something similar.
They realy are just scum...
