Description:
------------
There's comment spam on the following site:

http://de.php.net/manual/en/function.fopen.php

BTW: The SPAM challenge on the post entry site ist very unsecure. It's pretty easy to write a simple PHP script bot, which will enter massive spam in nearby any comment. You've got only min, max, plus, subtract and the numbers from 0 to 9. I hope you fix this soon with the captcha on this site here (i've must reload the site 4 times to read the code ;-) ).

Best regards from Germany,
Christian

Thanks, comment removed.

I however would rather want to remove the captcha then to make it harder.
captchas are the root of many evil.
