The changes are installed and enabled and it looks good so far. Time will tell if it's helped. Please leave the captcha implementation disabled unless we're suddenly overwhelmed with fake accounts. The hope is that the SpamFruits mod will allow us to run without the difficult-to-use captcha.
update - I've been monitoring accounts, and the fix is looking good. I hate to get too optimistic about it though, because it's definitely beatable if someone spared a few moments to look at it closely. Probably worthwhile to start thinking of other modifications I can add to make it a little tougher. Not one fake account has been created since the change.
