### 󠀁[Causes spammy pop-ups](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/causes-spammy-pop-ups/)󠁿

 [Azurite](https://profiles.wordpress.org/azurite/) October 15, 2016

Causes spammy pop-ups to intermittently show up on sites where it’s installed, even
when you don’t necessarily visit a page with a plugin. Apparently this is secretly
embedded in their Terms of Use, based on the JavaScript that connects with an ad
server… in other words, not hacked, just malware. AVOID! There are better captcha
solutions out there.

They inject ads that make you download viruses that harm your browser and your computer.
I thought was hacked!

### 󠀁[Malware in the plugin](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/malware-in-the-plugin/)󠁿

 [yocrush](https://profiles.wordpress.org/yocrush/) February 8, 2017

The plugin injects the site with malware. This may get your site banned from Google
and all the major search engines. As I seen in other reviews, they inject the sites
that have the plugin installed to monetize the plugin. My recommendation is to skip
this one.

### 󠀁[Works well with WordPress 4.1 and Child Theme](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/works-well-with-wordpress-4-1-and-child-theme/)󠁿

 [Keith Soon](https://profiles.wordpress.org/ksoon/) February 8, 2017

Thank you for creating this plugin. Working well with WordPress 4.1, and self-child-
theme, which is based on the TwentyTen theme with other plugins installed.

### 󠀁[🙁 Images not local off outside server.](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/images-not-local-off-outside-server/)󠁿

 [hi14](https://profiles.wordpress.org/hi14/) February 7, 2017

This causes security check and calls to be made outside your website, instead of
keeping security within your website. Images and calls are made to outside a WP 
site installation and to a 2nd or 3rd party server. 🙁 Too bad.
