Back in the beginning of November I installed a CAPTCHA control to help mitigate all of the spam comments that were filtering into my blog. These were a nuisance back then, but not yet an epidemic. Shortly after I had installed the control I ran into some problems - namely the fact that the text was very difficult to read. After a little battling with it I eventually removed it. The spam had temporarily ceased anyway...until recently.
About daily now I get about 2-5 spam comment posts (either relating to poker or drugs). Therefore, I decided to go out an search again for a CAPTCHA control that I could just drop onto a .Text blog. It turns out that Miguel Jimenez had made some updates to his control not three days after I initially added it. I wish I had followed up sooner and most (if not all) of these would have been avoided. The control looks fantastic and it's a pleasure to have it on my site.
Thanks, Miguel for your great work!
