Captcha
Thanks to this plugin, I’m now able to cut down on the amount of comment spam I have to moderate. Only recently (presumably with an increase in traffic thanks to my affiliation with the Spread Firefox project and my own authorship of a couple of apparently pretty popular Word Press plugins) did I start to get much spam. And even now it’s not that much. But after having to delete four or five spams from the same mouth breather within a few hours today, I figured I’d better look around for a solution that doesn’t require my daily intervention. Here’s hoping this’ll keep some of the automated spam out. Many thanks to Gudlyf for saving me the trouble of writing captcha code.

I think the graphically comment-code of the hack “Authimage” (http://www.gudlyf.com/index.php?p=376) is a very good idea and it works fine at my WP 1.3 beta.
But after the installation of this hack I tested trackbacking from other blogs - and now the TBs of this blogs is not more shown. Likely because the trackback-URL needs now a code too?

This is not a plugin…it’s a code hack, which is quite different. It doesn’t make it “bad” or anything, but if you upgrade or do other changes, it might break. It’s important to ensure that people understand the difference between a code hack and a plugin.
