I have the latest version of JS installed. I also use Akeeba subscriptions.

Every so often we get a subscription come through fine. But each day we get about a dozen or so spam registrations which are obviously bypassing Akeeba and the usual registration process. But I can't see where or how they do this!

I have activated Captcha on the registration page but it appears to make no difference. Can you help?
