but instead of component == ‘blogs’ change it to type == ‘new_member’

then change your theme activity/index.php to remove the select option ‘show new members’

I would also like to see this filter turned off if logged in as admin, so we could administer the the spammers better –

using the above example – add before the loop

if ( is_site_admin() )

return $activities;
