Currently I am trying to develop a database with all carnations of
spamwords, which I check against the user-message that arrive. This
maybe a tedious task, but hopefully it works.
Another thing I am thinking about is just plain and simple moderation.
It's not my first choice, but if that's what it takes, than maybe I'll
have to.
Or maybe a combination: only messages with hyperlinks in it, must be
moderated.
I may also just move my reCaptcha around on the form by a few pixels in any
direction to hopefully "hurt" the readers / scrapers.
I've had to resort to other means

With all due respect - rubbish.
The "weakest link" analogy only applies if you're running such things
in parallel and accepting *any* "yes" answer rather than requiring all
of them to say "yes." Other things you can use in addition to
reCAPTCHA (not all may be applicable to particular applications, and
some not worth the effort required to implement them):
1) Akismet
2) IP blacklists
3) New user moderation
4) Peer moderation
5) Token authentication to verify account activation
6) Bayesian filtering
7) Markovian discrimination

Perhaps, instead of railing on a user list when it's obvious there's
no-one answering from the supplier, those with concerns could email
support directly[1] instead of incessantly moaning on here that their
one no-cost barrier to spam isn't working as effectively as it could,
and defending their decision to use only one method of stopping
spammers.

A few days ago, I described some problems I seem to have with ReCaptcha.
These problems have not been solved yet. In summary:
On my guestbook (http://www.yawp.nl/guestbook) I get a could not open
socket & connection timed out error whenever I fill in some info.
I tried a couple of possible solutions I found searching in Google.
Funny enough everything goes smoothly on my develop server. So I tried
to get different keys for the develop server and the live server, but it
made no difference. So I came to the conclusion it must be the live
server's config.
But now I found that spammers somehow seemed to get passed, and filled
my guestbook. This makes me wonder. Apparently it seems they can
actually surpass the entire ReCaptcha protection. This brings about a
whole new aspect...
This problem is usually caused by firewall or server configuration,
not reCAPTCHA.

(This is not reCAPTCHA, this is reCAPTCHA *plugins*)
Seems that this is targeting the wrong users (e.g. slow typing user).
Of course, as long as reCAPTCHA can maintain enough variance, this can
be implemented.

reCaptcha is fully cracket i got lots of spam mails.
My forum is a PhpBB3 forum.What to do about this?
I've been using reCAPTCHA successfully on my forum for well over a
year. It has reduced spam down to a trickle of hand-registered
accounts.
