Comment:

 This is really weird.  Why does the recaptcha on bb.arethusa.su expect a
 referrer, while one like
 [http://phpformclass.com/phpform/examples/recaptcha this]does not?  They
 both appear to use similar embedding code. The buggy embed is:

 {{{
 <script type="[ text/javascript]" src="[view-
 source:http://api.recaptcha.net/challenge?k=6LdGKwoAAAAAAFcaIG2_X7m7FvqUiJM245L8SrNS]"></script>

 while this works ok:

 }}}
 {{{
 <script type="[ text/javascript]" src="[view-
 source:http://api.recaptcha.net/challenge?k=6Lc5kQgAAAAAAIJ2vxqwF0A71Ts8oP6FPkN8WaDM]"></script>


 }}}
