    phpBB anti-spam?

    Is there a phpBB mod similar to the one used on the hexus site where people can't post links or images until they've made a certain amount of posts?

    Had yet another porn spammer sign up for my board this morning and it's going to get me or one of the other admins into trouble at work soon if people happen to walk past whilst we're looking at it :-S

    I've been looking at other mods to prevent bots signing up, but I'd like to be able to ban those that sign up manually too.

    There's a mod called Anti-Spam ACP that works pretty well.

    It's now blocking out all of the people who attempt to sign up on my forum with a website in their profile or signiture. I still get some weird ones where a spammer signs up with nothing in their profile.
