 * 1. Lot of spam from folks, so need some security here
 * 2. What I’m looking for is an image text and the user has to type in that text
   to prove that he’s not some robot.
 * 3. If there is an error, the error message should be displayed right there and
   not on a new page.
 * 4. Also in case of error, the comment that has been typed should not be deleted.
   The user needs to just type the new image text.
 * Is there something that meets this criteria.
    Sorry for all the detail, but I
   wanted this sorted the first time : ). Thanks Viv-ache

 * Do a search for captcha – it’s fairly ineffective though…. using Bad Behavior
   and Spam Karma 2 plugins is far better.
 * Find them through [Plugins](http://codex.wordpress.org/Plugins).

 * I don’t know of anything that would do #4.
    And captchas are annoying… I never
   comment on sites that have one. Go with the anti-spam plugins!
