    i've had a similar problem and noticed that most of the bots enter in an ICQ number for some reason. edit your registration script so that if this value is provided, do not allow them to register. of course remove this field from your HTML template as well ;)

    also, doing a preg_match() on certain words in their username, website, signature, etc and blocking if found can eliminate quite a few as well.
