How about recaptcha? All the confirmation does is turn some people away, without preventing spammers from making an account. I have lost several customers because Microsoft is a pain in the tush and they want me to sign up for their control. They blocked my site because one person complained because a student entered the wrong email in their account, and some arbitrary person got a confirmation email.
Anyway, wouldn't recaptcha take care of the spammers? Please advise...
