Re: Spam Bots on Forum
I haven't had any problems with mine, but I have heard of problems with some of the older CAPTCHA methods being cracked. At this point, I'd just say to do a phpBB upgrade. But back up your database and files first To back up the database, I've found that doing an export in phpMyAdmin is most reliable. If you have phpMyAdmin, I'd say export it through there to back it up before upgrading. If not, use phpBBs built in database backup utility. Just be sure to read up on all issues before installing.
EDIT: This may sound dumb but I bet chaning th name of your directory in which the forum exists to something other than phpBB2 would help some.
