Keeping spammers out of Discussion forum?

One of my websites use the Discussion Web Site template, included with FP.
But now some spammers have found it, and are creating automatic posting
there. Is there a way to prevent this, or are there any other better and more
secure discussion website templates available?

If it is public they will find it
Some users are adding Captcha to their forms
- see http://www.captcha.net/

Or if you want to be more accessable than CAPTCHA, just add a REQUIRED field
that is something like "What day comes after Thursday?", and if it doesn't
contain "friday" don't submit the form.
