Hi all,

I have a client in 1.0.15...

1. Registration was allowed
2. we were getting lots of fake registrations from the ip of churchelo.info
3. I blocked their ip from accessing the site
4. they kept on doing it
5. removed registration
6. finally it stopped

Now, I turned it back on this weekend, now she is getting fake registrations again, here is a sample:
Hello The Childrens School of Yoga,

A new User has registered at The Childrens School of Yoga.
This e-mail contains their details:

Name - TilsOPPOPEsok
E-mail - unesserty at mail.ru
Username - TilsOPPOPEsok

Any idea how I can block the new registartions, but allow her legal contacts to register via virtuemart (I turned on the 'back end registration' through virtuemart, so they aren't using the regular registration page...I was hoping that would help.


thanks,
Laura
