<p>Lately my blog has seen a number of new users registering. The strange thing is, is that this user uses an email adress that looks the same time after time. He/She then doesn&#8217;t post any information / comment. And the next day another user is added.</p>
<p>You can see the following image copy-pasted from my admin panel.<br />
<a href="http://www.thegenepool.nl/profkienstra/wp-content/uploads/2008/04/workaholic002.jpg" rel="lightbox" title="users" class="broken_link"><img src="http://www.thegenepool.nl/profkienstra/wp-content/uploads/2008/04/workaholic002.jpg" width="75%" /></a></p>
<p>I&#8217;ve tried emailing the above email adresses, but all bounce. This means that the person adding the users is using a fake email adress. This means that i feel no sorrow when i delete these users again.</p>
<p>But the thing is, i&#8217;m interested in finding a plugin or something that can let you block account names automatically. Now it takes a manual handling to remove these users. Do you know anything that can do this?</p>
