# FunCaptcha 0.3.17 upgrade failed

 * I installed FunCaptcha version 0.3.16 yesterday and it worked fine.
 * Today, I went to my blog to find a later version of FunCaptcha was available 
   so I allowed the automatic upgrade. Afterward I was confronted by a blank screen–
   there was just no code at all.
 * I solved the problem by deleting the wp-content/plugins/funcaptcha/ directory.
   Once I’d got my blog back I tried to upgrade manually – with the same result.
 * So now I’m using “Captcha” by BestWebSoft instead.

 * Same here.
    Except I could see an error:
 *     ```
       Warning: require_once(/clientdata/apache-www/s/p/spottydog.com.au/www/wp-content/plugins/funcaptcha/addons/wp_funcaptcha_cf7.php) [function.require-once]: failed to open stream: No such file or directory in /clientdata/apache-www/s/p/spottydog.com.au/www/wp-content/plugins/funcaptcha/wp_funcaptcha.php on line 23

 * I renamed the Funcaptcha folder to funcaptcha.bak to get my site working again.
