Greetings cj1,
Thanks for being a WPMUDEV member and welcome to the forums.
Anti-Splog is used to stop and kill splogs in WordPress Multisite and BuddyPress.
This is activated on the network and then comes in action if you have got subsite signup enabled.
As the name suggests, its used to kill Spam Blogs and is not used to protect user sign-up. So, its not for a non multisite installation.
Thanks for marking this topic resolved (One less step for me ;) ) , should you have any further questions, please feel free to ask, we are always around !

I did a research on splog a few months back and this is where it took me
Splog = Spam Blog
