    I think that the image verifications is broken already. I am testing a new image verification installed on the phpLD :)

    Yeah that is why many members like mystikmedia suggest you to disable captcha as it does not help!

    Spammers can bypass captcha so v3.1 is the way to go!!

    I am not sure about spam mod but as far as i know An0n has made a custom mod although the best thing to do is just ask for support on supporters forums of PHPLD! :)

    Well I can't answer this question but it's true that I am getting far less spam submissions after upgrading to v3.1!
