Our trac instance still allows creation of accounts before e-mail
confirmation, and there are robots out there trained in the account
creation business.

The accounts are not listed in the administration interface.

Every now and then we have a flurry of ticket updates containing
advertising links, and we respond by adding a pattern to a BadContent
list.
