 * A good basic “math” Captcha, but with a few minor drawbacks:
 * First, even though you are given the option of using “words” in place of digits(
   ie: “five”, “nine”) users can’t **answer** using words (which might be confusing).
   Not a big deal, but clumsy. I simply uncheck “Words” as an option. But a “words-
   only” Math Captcha might thwart more Bots if users must answer in “words” as 
   well.
 * The Captcha is ONLY math, no “text” Captcha, so if you want a text Captcha too,
   you’ll need a second plugin.
 * It would be nice if “/n” (or something similar) were supported in the Captcha
   Title for carriage returns so your entire prompt/instructions doesn’t have to
   fit on one line. (Maybe some [BBcode] too?)
 * Biggest problem: If the user enters the wrong answer and goes Back (as instructed),
   their entire post is gone and must be retyped. That could seriously tick off 
   some people after typing a long comment only to lose it because “butter fingers”
   hit the wrong key.
 * Maybe in the next update?

 * The “Back” issue appears to be fixed now. I just dl this plugin for my new WP
   and tried to reproduce the error you spoke about. No issues. (using OSX 10.5.8
   with Safari 5.0.6)
