Seth, before you give up completely, you may want to think about what you're trying to "protect" and whether things are dismaying as have been suggested. :-) For instance, I have made a case (in a blog entry below) that for some things, a captcha is certainly better than nothing. I suggest regarding it as a screen door. Sure, there are times when a double-key deadbolt lock is what's needed, but not always. :-) The first entry was this: Captchas: making them simpler, and dialing down the angst against them http://carehart.org/blog/client/index.cfm/2006/8/17/the_angst_against_captch as The second proposes how to simplify the captcha in Lyla captcha (mentioned by Teddy in his link to maestropublishing), which is also used in BlogCFC (and is a simple CFC component): Simplifying the captcha graphic in Lyla Captcha (and BlogCFC) http://carehart.org/blog/client/index.cfm/2006/8/17/simplifying_lyla_in_blog cfc And later I offered a downloadable captcha.xml file that would be needed to simplify the lyla captcha: Want to simplify your Blogcfc (or other Lyla-based) captcha? Here's the XML file. http://carehart.org/blog/client/index.cfm/2006/10/7/lyla_captcha_simplified_ xml_file /Charlie http://www.carehart.org/blog/

Well, I'm going to try Emerle for now and I'll start implementing a blacklist. What a pain!
