I recently started getting the same spam. I am going to install the SpamBlacklist extension tonight or tomorrow and will let you know how it works.

Is anybody else getting tons of user registrations that have spam in the user pages and the usernames are soemthing like "180 buy Viagra"?
I haven't had a chance to test it but doesn't the keyword blacklist block the usage of those words in usernames and userpages?
Also is there a better captcha available.. this bot is getting around the math question
