The forum is pretty quiet at present and a lot of the messages are spam disguised as vague tech-sounding messages.
It would be great if a captcha could be added for accounts with low post counts.
I know the admin is removing items as time allows but I just want to raise the issue as I recently received spam in my 'Private Messages' on the forum.
I didn't open the message but it would be a good idea to fix this as there's the potential for these spam bots to link users to some malware hosting sites.
Thanks

Re: Forum Spam
I think that I have turned on some security features to limit new users. They should not be able to send PMs or post without approval. I'm not sure about the approval part.

Great job thanks. Spam is a pain in the neck!
