I had an issue getting this working properly with Jomsocial registration, the author customised my installation so that it worked. Excellent service, and very fast.
Thanks!

EasyCalcCheck Plus = No spam, just fun! ;-)
Thank you for your review!
This was the 6th anti-spam plugin that I installed and the only one that worked properly with my rockettheme extension (not to say the others aren't good, don't get me wrong)
I set the arithmetic problem to show ONLY on Register page and it does it's job great after enabling the RocketTheme plugin parameters. The only problem I have is on the Registration page, I have a login form at the top, which inherits the math problem as well. So it looks ugly, however, all the other pages don't have this problem, and since nobody who goes to the Register page has an account yet they don't need to use the login form. So it's good enough for me.
Thank you! A

A must have Plugin!
I had also some issues with Easycalcheck and my Rockettheme template that i couldn't find the solution for it.
An extremely quick response and a tied support from the theme and the plugin start looking and working like a charm.
Thanks for your work!

You're welcome, have success with ECC+!
I had some issues with Easycalcheck plus with some of the latest Rockettheme tepmplates displaying the easycalcheck 'spam check' however after visiting the owners site and using a trusty german to English translator program I was able to get fantastic help within a very short time. I highly recommend this excellent plugin and once again thank the support staff for outstanding and fast support.

Thank you for your review!
Prior to using this extension, I was running JFusion and SMF, and would get 20 to 30 registrations a day from Spammers - they would be blocked, but even then 2 or 3 would sneak through.
Since switching to Kunena and ECC+, I have not had a single spammer get through in 3 weeks of operation.
A solid victory!

Nice!
Have fun, no spam! :-)
I tried an earlier version of this extention with an 1.7 Artisteer template and had problems and so was put off but have very recently reloaded my website with J2.5 from start and used the standard template, 1st loading Akeebabackup and 2nd this extension for security. Though the help website is largely written in German which may put off some, it is easy enough to load this plugin which worked instantly and seamlessly. I absolutely hate squiggly character captchas and constantly have to replay them so this is a welcome change. Full marks for this free and simple plugin.

Wow, very nice!
Thank you very much.
This simple pluggin did a fantastic job of stopping spammers that were creating accounts on my site. I had a captcha enabled module, but there was no protection for the registration pages that programs such an Kunena and Virtuemart were generating. This pluggin added a simple math problem with plugged all registration protection gaps on the site.

Have success with ECC+!
It installed very easy and I was able to set it up in only minutes! Worked with a lot of different things that I got going like VirtueMart and my contact us form! I had been hit with spammers for awhile and this stopped it instantly. No false registrations or anything! Thanks a whole lot for helping with this plugin!

I've tried several anti-spam extensions but that is the best one. I've had problem with spam in Kunena forum. Since Kunena's anti spam protection isn't working with older RocketTheme templates I've had to search for solution.
EasyCalcCheck PLUS works great with both Kunena and RocketTheme templates. Easy to configure. A lot of options to set up. I recommend this extension.

After switching from Joomla 1 to 1.7.3, I was looking for a plugin to make registration safe. I don't like Captcha myself, because it's not user friendly. I had a small problem in one situation, but through the forum it was solved quick and a new version was published immediately, that solved the problem. A great example how it can be.
