first of all, talk like this does no good unless your actually providing the solution... link? it would prolly already be installed if all the information I needed were available, so now its going to have to wait until next time I get some free time... that said, almost all modern spam bots are not even phased by most captcha... but I will put it up none the less and we will see...
One thing that interests me is that obviously somebody took the time to customze their bot to specifically attack our site to circumvent my trivial-but-custom registration stuff... how can one freakin wiki be worth it????
Another option I am considering is to tie it back to a forum account... I cant easily integrate the two login databases, but I could at least check forum authentication at registration time...
