Catalyst isn't hard. You just have to apprentice the first time you work with it. :-)

Update BAH! I won't attempt to type a sucky captcha just to -read- your blog.

My criteria for good software:
  1. Does it work?
  2. Can someone else come in, make a change, and be reasonably certain no bugs were introduced?

    The captcha is part of Wordpress 2.5. I haven't been able to figure out how to disable it. If anyone knows, how, please let me know as it annoys me too.

      UPDATE: Looks like the culprit was http://crazyeddie.info/dealer/dealer.js in the footer.php file of the GlossyBlue 1.4 theme

      The official download site http://www.ndesign-studio.com/resources/wp-themes/glossyblue/ doesn’t have this code. I did download it last week… hmmm

      Otto42 over on the Wordpress.org forums identified the script as:

      It’s a captcha defeating system. It’s not checking if you’re human or not, it’s sending the results back to crazyeddie.info to let the thing bypass the captcha from some other site!

      I just went through all the files and verified that the only java script files that are being pulled are official ones. Kudos to Otto42!
