WordPress Plugin – New Captcha Plugin

WordPress plugin – Someone complained that my captcha was really annoying and after trying to submit some comments myself, I found that it was a little annoying. So I went searching for a new CAPTCHA plugin to use for my Thesis website. I found this math one that I thought was interesting. I do like the math challenges and glad I don’t have to take out my calculator for them. I love my new free CAPTCHA so far, if you are interested in trying it out, below is where it is and how to install it.
