Theres a shit load of mods that can help stop spam for phpBB.
You can also use Anti-Spam ACP: This hack prevents spam bots from registering on your forum by removing the fields of your choice in the registration and profile form until users reach certain requirements. If a spam bot is detected, you are sent an e-mail notification with the username, IP address and more.
Also, I use the MPS mod. It gives your members a MySpace like profile, but if you set it to mandatory it will stop 99% of the spam bots because before anyone can post they will have to set up their profile.
