#1 is implement a captcha system. (It's the graphic letter code you have to enter when you register, log in, download a file, etc) You didn't state what version of Nuke you are using. Without that, I can't tell you how to do it.

You should have in your PHP Admin settings a little section that states the following:

Allow Anonymous to Post? Yes No <-- Have No selected as this will stop anyone with the name anonymous from posting in your forum

Also in your .php files you should have some sort of config.php file in there you can set the GFX check as detailed previously by topjob

Like below (ravensnuke):

Code:

$gfx_chk:   7
    You need to have GD extension installed:
     0: No check
     1: Administrators login only
     2: Users login only
     3: New users registration only
     4: Both, users login and new users registration only
     5: Administrators and users login only
     6: Administrators and new users registration only
     7: Everywhere on all login options (Admins and Users)


IMO you really should get Ravens Nuke 2.10.01 as this is a really good Nuke install to use, especially at combating Spam app's and hackers alike.

Link to Raven's Nuke: http://ravenphpscripts.com/modules.php?name=Downloads&d_op=viewdownload&cid=27#cat

Aswell as this you want to get CNBYA 4.4.2 as this allows you the admin to accept or decline any user wanting to register on your site.
You can get this from here: http://www.clan-themes.co.uk/downloaddetails-9-371-cnbya-442.html#dldetails

Hope this helps
