Captcha doesn't help if it's a human entering the registrations.  It can only stop robots.

Laura, did you check if it is possible to set a Captcha in Joomla? I am not sure but that would help you with this problem

Hi all,

I am having a problem with registrations in joomla.  I am using version 1.0.15, we have a fake organization creating fake accounts through the registration page.

I have blocked the domain's ip from accessing the site, but we are still getting the fake registrations.

What should I do next?

thanks,
Laura
