You can find this plugin in action here :

It adds CAPTCHA in create account, tell a friend, contact us, links submit and I added the CAPTCHA in "write a review".

Uninstall the "other one" first.

Before anyone installs this do checkout Megaman's Demo.

Although the CAPTCHA image generated by this mod is of high quality and far less prone to getting "found out by bots", it is also sometimes difficult for a human to identify one or more of the image characters (due to a character getting cut off out on the edge or due to overlapping characters).

If you find it difficult to identify an image character, think how your customers might fare. And most importantly think about how they might respond.

Maybe best to add a message:

"If you cannot identify one of the characters above please click the redraw button to generate a new character set"

I'm not at all dissing this mod and thank Andrew as he has done the Zen Cart community a service in implementing this much improved CAPTCHA.

Just be aware of potential issues before installing.

I wanted to ask: Does anyone running Zen Cart (1.37 or previous) without CAPTCHA have an issue with bot registrations?

Many have reported issues of bots using the contact form or other Zen Cart related email forms, but wondering if anyone has observed issues with account registrations by bots (if CAPTCHA was employed or not).
