ID: 49862 Updated by: bjori@php.net Reported By: ravetracer at yahoo dot de -Status: Open +Status: Closed Bug Type: Website problem PHP Version: Irrelevant New Comment: Thanks, comment removed. I however would rather want to remove the captcha then to make it harder. captchas are the root of many evil.

It's pretty easy to write a simple PHP script bot, which will enter massive spam in nearby any comment. You've got only min, max, plus, subtract and the numbers from 0 to 9. I hope you fix this soon with the captcha on this site here (i've must reload the site 4 times to read the code ;-) ). Best regards from Germany, Christian ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=49862&edit=1
