WordPress registration spam is the devil

I’ve been getting quite a bit of registration spam recently, and it’s really ticking me off. So, tonight instead of doing my homework, I decided to write a plugin that will ‘hopefully’ take care of the problem. At this point, it is hacked together quite badly, and is not user friendly at all, but I plan on changing that this weekend (after my homework). Would anyone like to test it out before I release it to the world? It uses reCAPTCHA so you’ll have to sign up for a free public and private key at their site. I’m not sure that it works one-hundred-percent of the time yet, but I’m logging failed attempts to the database, so we should know within a few days.
