Peter.. I wanna ask, how can we change the listening sound ?

Reply from Peter: There is a “sounds” folder containing files for each letter of the English alphabet and each number. You can replace any of all of those files with your own recording.

Hi Peter! First off, thanks so much for this. It is the only one I can find anywhere that does exactly what I want.

That being said, I do have one problem, and I can’t seem to fix it.
On my blog, it works perfectly for Internet Explorer, but not for Firefox!?!

I’ve logged out, and even rebooted just to be sure… but it will NOT work for Firefox. I get the following error message:

Error: Please enter the anti-spam text.
Copy your comment in case this site forces a page reload whenever you press the Back button:

I love that it gives you the comment to copy BTW!
So, can you help me? Have you seen this problem before? Works like a charm on IE, but not FireFox… it’s stumped me. (BTW I’m on the most recent version of FF 3.5.5)

Thanks!!

Dear Peter,

Thank you very much for the prompt response.
Yes, disabling the "WP Captcha Free" plugin solved my problem!

YOU ROCK!

Hi Peter,

I used the automatic option bu it didn’t so i tried including the code you specified in my teamplate’s comments.php file and it worked, but it keeps saying "invalid data" when I key in all the required fields correctly.

Pls see here:

Reply from Peter: Looks like that error is caused by another plugin: http://wordpress.org/support/topic/175344

Oh crap, it’s only 0.2.1!!! It didn’t offer auto-update so I assumed it was the latest. I’ll give the new one a shot. Thanks!

Hi Vaelek, are you running the latest version of the plugin? I know of no reason why the plugin would stop working after you upgrade to WP 2.7.

After recently upgrading to WP2.7, the image box now always shows ***INVALID*** and I’m not sure why. Any light to shed on this? If I cannot resolve I will have to go with another plugin as this has effectively disabled unregistered comments entirely.

Hi Bob, if you read this forum post, your problem sounds quite similar. Your host might have re-compiled PHP or done something funny related to the compilation of the FreeType library. The technical details at the point are a bit over my head, but you should be able to ask your host to fix the FreeType library (and/or GD Library) compilation.
