Thanks Norv - I have used option number two Add verification to the login and set it to medium as high was to hard to read - seems the best way to stop this, hopefully.

Cool. That will make it easier for the bots to read. ;D
(this is why I think captcha is not the best option)

I'm now hours and hours without a single bot hit... with 2 lines of code and my users noticed nothing ;) And no, the login CAPTCHA is not the answer. Mind you, I have a custom CAPTCHA anyway ;)
