So I stopped using it and then upgraded that when it was available and it was still messed up. In the end, I quit using it altogether and now use reCAPTCHA.

The concept’s more or less the same, it shows a word which is obscurified (sp?!) and you’ve got to type it into the box for your comment to be accepted on the blog. If you get it right, you get a cookie. Only kidding, in both the edible and computer type. What I ment to say was that if you get it right, your comment gets accepted.

reCAPTCHA looks the business and does the job. No complaints here. I quite like how you can change the way it looks.

It’s simple but neat.

I’ve got no major plans for this blog, I suppose this time round it’ll be a bit of a mixed bag.

Nothing much interesting to report here.

Zzzz….
