[Mediawiki-l] WikiCatalog spam user page

Mon Oct 24 18:53:23 UTC 2005

Hello
I have just had a spammer using their user page after signing up to post spam, 
a quick google revealed a couple of other sites that had been hit by it. Most 
of them just replaced the spam with "SpamBot account", I have blocked the 
user and cleared the spam, but is there a better way to do this? 
Thanks,
H
