In addition to using Human Verification, go into the AdminCP under Settings -> Spam Settings. Here you can set up a number of tools to prevent malicious users from posting to your site. You can filter content based on Akismet filtering. You can filter registrations based on the StopForumSpam database. You can also check for number of links in a post or screen for specific words.
For further control, you can use Usergroup Promotions to screen out potential troublemakers. We use it here. People with less than XX number of posts have fewer permissions than those that pass the threshold. This can be used to lock new registers out of systems like Private Messaging, Visitor Messaging, and Blogs to reduce the number amount of spam they can create. You can find this in the AdminCP under Usergroups -> PromotionsTranslations provided by Google.
