Sk*rt, I just tried signing up for your site. I purposely didn't confirm my email address and then tried to log in. All it says is that I have the wrong username or password. I haven't tried installing this mod yet, so I don't know if this is normal. If so, this mod needs a way to tell if someone hasn't confirmed their email address and...

1. Remind them to check again.

2. Offers them a chance to have the confirmation message sent again.

I run another social networking site and I know that either putting in the wrong email address or not noticing the confirmation message is very common. Most of the time, the user just gets frustrated and leaves.

we added one feature to our confirmation "thank you" page: a link to the login page.

will be checking here regularly to try to stay a step ahead of these bots. thanks to all of you for all your great coding.
