If I understand correctly that is the point of this.
You create the custom question and answer.

Really nice idea, thanks :)

umm, you could easily code a bot that grabs the string and adds the two numbers to produce the answer.

Then you could simply create a different question and answer. Some example:

Quote:
What do you put in your car to make it go? Gas
What company makes the Xbox? Microsoft
Do you stop or go at a green light? Go
What is the main ingredient in cheese cake? Cheese
Is it hot or cold outside in the winter? Cold
What I'd like to know, as I have not tried this yet, is does this support multiple questions/answers? Can I create question/answer list as above and they will randomly appear? Also are the answers case senstive?

If yes to my first question....I'll be installing this asap! Please make it not case sensitive. :)
Would be nice to see a screeny of the AdminCP for this!

The questions and answers are, as I thought I had made completely clear in the first post, completely customizable. There are no default questions or question formats that the bot could robotically answer. There is just an input field where you specify your questions and answers, which can be literally anything:

So what does this hack do instead? It asks a question. Any question you want. That's the best part: you make up the questions, which means that every forum is unique, which means that it is impossible for spambots to be simply programmed to bypass it at all forums with the hack installed.
Yes, it supports multiple questions:

Quote:
You can make one or many questions - if you make many, the hack will pick one at random when a user attempts to register.
The answers are case sensitive at the moment, but I was now thinking about giving it a little more flexibility, both by making it case insensitive and allowing you to specify multiple possible answers to the same question (for example, if you were using the first question in your list, I believe the British would answer it with "Petrol" rather than "Gas").

I'll give you an admin CP screenshot when I've done those tweaks.

This is great! You can use it not only to prevent spambots from registering with your site but also as an aptitude prerequisite. ;) This would help to filter a lot of fools out of your membership. I keed, I keed (partially). ....:D

You can have lots of fun making up your own customized questions.

Can this be used in conjunction with CAPTCHA?
