INTRODUCTION
------------

Spambot protects the user registration form from spammers and spambots by
verifying registration attempts against the Stop Forum Spam
(www.stopforumspam.com) online database.
It also adds some useful features to help deal with spam accounts.

This module works well for sites which require user registration
before posting is allowed (which is most forums).

 * User Stats (https://www.drupal.org/project/user_stats):
   Allow to use a bit more statistics of users by IP address.

 * Statistics (built-in core)
   Allow to use a bit more statistics of users by IP address.


INSTALLATION
------------

 * Install as you would normally install a contributed Drupal module. See:
   https://drupal.org/documentation/install/modules-themes/modules-7
   for further information.


CONFIGURATION

   - Protected from spambot scans

     be scanned by cron.
