Image verification script help!

[bbalegere]

The latest version of phpbb has a image verification script which does not work with certain firewalls.How do I make sure that my users who use firewalls have no problems in registering in my site?

 

[Noobie]

if i had to guess its because they are blocking cookies

 

[bbalegere]

so what do I do?

There is nothing you can do if they are blocking cookies, unless you wanted to modify the script so that sessions are used instead

 

[Noobie]

so what do I do?

Tell the to stop blocking the cookies.

Here's some good text you can give them

I don't think it blocks cookies.
it does something else.

Dont use the image verification thing, honestly its annoying and wont stop people from manually registering users... the point of it is mainly pointless especially for a small site

I don't won't want my forum to be spammed.I just want to make sure it works with all firewalls that is all.

Ask this on the phpbb forums, i for one do not use it so i can't help you short of saying turn it off.

Honestly if the phpbb have managed to produce CAPTCHA that doesn't work behind firewalls and then distributed it comercially...i don't know what to say :hehe:
