I use Community Builder for Login.
They have a new good working anti-spam-tool.
I also found out, that it is good to have a view more fields (like company name) that are mantotary. This also protect a lot of spam-registrations...
Also registration via Email-link-approval should always be activated.

What is Kunena doing, this should be priority for them... There are somethings they can do for example the one i used in my previous post.

Here's a clip from their security page:
Adjust the basic security level to modify CloudFlare's protection behavior relative to which visitors are shown a captcha/challenge page. A low security setting will challenge only the most threatening visitors. A high security setting will challenge all visitors that have exhibited threatening behavior within the last 14 days. Essentially off will act only against the most grievous offenders. We recommend starting out at low.
I'm Under Attack Mode should only be used when a site is having a DDoS attack. Visitors will receive an interstitial page for about five seconds while we analyze the traffic and behavior to make sure it is a legitimate human visitor trying to access your site.

I have exactly the same problem, but with the difference that my version of Joomla is 1.5.26.
I have confirmed that the user IP is in the database.
Did you get to fix the problem?

I'm new to Kunena and need help with my forum. I've been fighting spammers non-stop for the past 6 hours. I have captcha, I've even turned off the forum yet they are still able to register. They can no longer post however.
What's the deal? Is there someone out there that can help me with better security. I used to be able to ban IPs in my old forum, but don't see that is is an option.
Please contact me via e-mail if you think you can help. [email protected] yahoo dot com
