is there anyway you can filter the registration so that spammers can't register or automatically become banned?

i've noticed that all the spammers have their Academic Status as "USA" and their major is their username. just wondering if you can do anything with that.

I'm sure there's a mod for this particular version of IPB to get a captcha set up.

Or we could upgrade the boards to something a little less.... archaic.
