Setting up Account Activation?
Hey all, Ive been having alot of problems with bots registering 20-30 new names a day on my phpbb. I want to set up either an account activation (where I have to activate it myself thru email) or one of those graphic confirmation things where they have to enter a randomly generated alphanumeric code in order to register. Can anyone help me out? thanks alot

(alternatively, you could have noodled around the General Configuration section in the admin cp)
