    Guys help!

    I woke up this morning and I had over 60 spam accounts at my website!

    I delete them all and the content but now I dont know how to prevent this.

    I have skismet installed and activated, and also I have Captcha at registration page.

    How did they manage to create accounts? Any thoughts??

    @louboulos captcha does not always fight spam as they have Chinese farms of people who are now entering these for robots. We found success using http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/wangguard/

    Wangguard is awesome out of the box. We also banned .Ru and yahoo.com emails and it helped a lot.
