[Techtalk] are these spammers?

[Ande's Help Info]

Hi Carla,

I recommend you set-up some kind of validation for the registration.  I use
Captcha (might be spelled wrong) to block robot registrations and /or
comments.  For your protection and to stay off of the blacklists I highly
recommend using a Validator which requires human input.  Even requiring an
email verification where they have to type in the email a second time will
help to protect you and your website from most faked emails.

I'm not sure what to make of Daniels comments.  You have a nice clean
website.

ehlo,

I'm getting these odd user registrations on my sites, like: 

Ensumnisevomo
troycoohu
lesterbmj

Some of them fail because they use fake email addresses, some don't. Has 
anyone else seen this? Are they spammers?

Carla
