    I need help with this please. We are getting so many new registrations (20 or so every minute) that it’s slowing our site down and taxing the server CPU. Here is what i’ve done:

    - Turned off Member Registrations
    - Enabled Captcha
    - Changed the Profile Triggering World

    Any idea what else i can do to head this off? Registrations are still pouring in. We don’t use front end registrations at all, so i’d prefer to just get rid of it.

    Thanks!
