WPmu problem
I have a dormant WPmu install that I haven't been paying much attention to over the past year. Due to some recent database problems I took a closer look today and holy fuck, over 7000 spamblogs was created!
After spending the better part of this morning deleting blogs/users I looked for a way to turn off new signups in the admin, but no luck. I finally deleted wp-signup.php, but still these fucking bots are creating new blogs at the rate of 5-6/hour. Does anybody know how to disable signups/creation of new blogs in WPmu for anyone but the admin?

go to site admin then choose options, there will be a setting to disable user blogs

Did that, both the limited email registrations and banned email domains options and still there are 9 new registrations/blogs since I started this thread. And keep in mind there is no signup page. I'm stumped.

If you disabled new registrations and your still getting them, something is seriously wrong. Im not a wp wizz, but do you think someone hacked it?

I'm starting to wonder... The only other explanation I can think of is that there were already some unconfirmed confirmation emails out there when I disabled signups and they are now trickling in.
I've put my host on the case and I'll see what they come up with.

You have disabled signups, but, any pending activation is still valid. Noted in your ticket with a more verbose explanation.

Problem solved, no new signups in the last 5 hours.
