I need a simple CAPTCHA program/script
« on: February 20, 2007, 11:21 PM »
I'm wondering if any of the Donation Coder family has created a CAPTCHA code that is easy enough for this old guy to cut & paste into my website.

What technology? ASP, ASP.NET or PHP?

PhpCaptcha:

ASP.NET:

Many more around if you Google it.

Last month I found that some spambots could crack the standard phpBB captcha. I was getting five or six spurious registrations a day with linksto all sorts of undesirable sites. I didn't want to make the images any more distorted, so I installed a similar textual confirmation mod.

All clear so far!  :)
If you don't see how it can fail -
