Hi there
We had huge spam sign up issues on out site, so we installed CB to try and over come it.

Everything was great, but this weekend we have had 650 registration, all from dodgy gmail accounts, so we bought the captcha plugin, and it is still doing strange things. Now we are getting lots of sign ups with the new register email saying

"A new user has registered at....
This email contains their details

Name - [NAME]
E-mail -
Username -

Please do not respond to this message as it is automatically generated and is for information purposes only
"

There is nothing being added to the user manager, and to be honest I have no idea what to do now to stop this happening?

Has anybody any thoughts please?

Regards
Ian
