SI CAPTCHA Anti-Spam by Author: Mike Challis
Adds CAPTCHA anti-spam methods to WordPress on the comment form, registration form, login, or all. In order to post comments or regiser, users will have to type in the phrase shown on the image. This prevents spam from automated bots. Adds security. Works great with Akismet. Also is fully WPMU and BuddyPress compatible.

seems like a very good way to stop spam, some people are all take, take ,take,
I dont mind if somebody posts an intellignet commetn on my blog but when they say something stupid and unrelated to get a backlink to their site it makes me mad.
I am gonna try this on my blog.
Although the plugin looks great but I’ve not tested it yet and would surely like to know if it works with the posting on wires’ in buddypress as well or if its prospected as I’ve found a number of spammers who’ve been joining buddypress nowadays and spamming around the buddypress forums and wires.
Nice submission, muchos gracias :)
If you use this on Buddypress be sure to update to the latest version of SI CAPTCHA Anti-Spam
http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/si-captcha-for-wordpress/
== Changelog ==
= 2.0.4 =
- (03 Oct 2009) – Fixed session error on the members and groups pages on all Buddypress versions.
I like this but it gets so annoying sometimes especially when you cannot read them and I know for sure I am human!!! I do catering in San Francisco and I like to look around and see recipes and when I want to leave a response, some of the captcha are so hard to figure out.
Good article, and nice blog!, I will come back again to read more.. keep with the good work!! Thanks a bunch for sharing. Keep blogging.
Thank you!
Here is a modified re-Captcha to work with BuddyPress.
Hope this will help :)
