   I figured out why the simple captcha is not working.
   wp-login.php calls:
   wp-load.php calls:
   wp-config.php calls:
   wp-settings.php which invokes:
   wp_unregister_globals() (around line 46) which unsets $_SESSION variables if register_globals is ON.

   If register_globals is turned OFF on your PHP server, then simple captcha will work. This explains why it works for some and not others. BTW register_globals is OFF permanently in PHP 6.0.

   You're right Doug.
   Anyway, you don't have to call you hosting to change their PHP server setting. You may turn it off by adding this line to your .htaccess file:

   php_flag register_globals off

   I've tried this, and the CAPTCHA started to work just great with Register Plus.
