KeyCAPTCHA Unique Technologies:
* Instead of guessing symbols, our CAPTCHA offers visitors to complete an easy interactive task.
* If KeyCAPTCHA hasn't been solved correctly, page refreshing doesn't take place that allows the user not to fill in the form repeatedly. It occurs since there is an initial checkup of CAPTCHAs in the KeyCAPTCHA servers before sending a filled-in form to the protected web server.
* Our CAPTCHA also can be used even if your hosting provider blocks all outgoing connections.

I recently added a shopping cart to a site and KeyCAPTCHA supported the cart.
It worked straight away without issue although due to how I had configured the layout of the checkout, the KeyCAPTCHA was not displaying where I wanted.
My questions were answered very quickly and the issue swiftly resolved.
An elegant solution to this application and with excellent support. Many thanks...

Hmm, I don't understand all these reviews. Have tried it and it did not work. Still got too much spam. Will look for another way to stop this spam bots!
I've installed this extension on a few on my sites with no problems. Setup is quick and very easy to understand. The newest version even has fewer steps!
Registration has increased on every site that I replaced the frustrating "guess the two twisted words" validation. The complaints that customers could not register have dropped to zero!
I needed support to integrate with a custom shopping cart template and they responded immediately and helped me out.
Thanks for a great plug in.

The KeyCaptcha extension was very easy to get up and running with my Joomla website. It's very classy in appearance and a better alternative to trying to read cryptic letters. I did have a couple of questions as I was getting everything to work and the KeyCaptcha tech support was very helpful and prompt in responding to my queries. I would highly recommend this option for Captcha functionality.

This plug-in is very useful in operation with a site. The site is more protected from spam bots. From many programs this method the most effective. One of the principal advantages of this program - speed, stability and very competent technical support. These advantages were the main factor in case of decision-making to use this product. Also plug-in well looks on site pages.
Thanks to authors.

I used different captcha in the past to protect my websites from spamming and i have to say that Keycaptcha is just the best of all! Compatibility with many extensions, perfect security, awesome design and supports many languages.
Installation couldn't be more easy and plus that the support team they are the MAN! I had a small problem in one of the sites that i have installed the module and they solved the problem at once!
So anyone that searching to install a captch in his website, this is the one!

I was looking for a captcha solution to protect the "ask a question about this product" link of VirtueMart on my website. After searching for about a few minutes on the web, I stumbled upon Keycaptcha. I immediately proceeded to download the plug-in and installed it on my website. Installation was a breeze. Issues with regards to the installation and operation are quickly responded to and resolved by their support team. Opening a support ticket on their site was very easy and the best part of it is that their support team quickly responded to my email and and immediately resolved any issue I had with their product. I have been using KeyCaptcha since then with my VirtueMart 2.0.8 and it appears to be working perfectly. The greatest part of these all is that KeyCaptcha is free! With a flawless operation and excellent support, what more can you ask for? Clearly, KeyCaptcha is the best anti-spam solution for those who are using the Joomla platform. With Joomla CMS technology and KeyCaptcha anti-spam feature, I can sleep soundly at night knowing that my online business is well-protected.

This is a completely new approach for anti-spam protection. I would say even more - it's an excellent example of non-traditional thinking with regard to solving of usual problems. And support is quick and friendly.
Thank you Andrey and keep on good work.

I was glad, when I saw that recaptcha is now part of Joomla 2.5. But when I finally enabled it on my website, I got frustrated: Seriously - I am not a noob, but how could Google expect that one would be able to identify those alphabetical mess? I almost need 10-20 reloads per captcha, in order to be able to read/type the required solution.
Therefore I was looking for a good alternative - and I finally found it in "keycaptcha".
The whole captcha is not only very cool and fun to use (solve image puzzles, instead of identifying crypted characters....), it is furthermore offered totally for free and set up within 2 minutes.
I would have expected that the support for a freeware tool like this would be rather poor - but I have been totally wrong: The support is awesome. I got an answer to my two requests in just a few hours each - that's outstanding!
My wish/feature request - which I would even take as paid features - are:
- being able to choose only certain images out of the whole portfolio (e.g. you have an animal site then show only animal pictures as captchas)
- set up your own captcha images

Very cool and fun way to stop those bots. Had some anti-spam on a form but spam was still getting through. Can't see how they'll get through this. The developer support was fantastic when I had a small issue. An outside of the square captcha solution.

Read the reviews and tried this extension first to stopp the bots. After problems with the annoying registration, the plugin did not work on my website. Still got a lot of spam.... Have not used the ad-version model, cause I do not trust everybody my data in the net. Have found a good reCaptcha plugin which do the job and not ask for too many personal data.
As spam bots are getting smarter the captchas are more and more hard to read to human visitors as well.
I was tired of typing several times a wrong security code and because I dont want my visitors having the same problems I was looking for a better solution.
Finaly found KeyCaptcha. And voila!
Also their support was fast, polite and qualified (and I have quite experiences with support teams). Wouldn´t hesitate to use/buy other extensions from them without thinking.
