I upgraded my blog engine from dasBlog 1.8.5223.2 to 1.9.6264.0 roughly a month ago. A few people recently brought to my attention that the capcha on the comment page no longer worked properly. Since I have been pretty busy recently after my move, I haven’t really got a chance to look at the problem yet. But just a quick Google, I found out that many people apparently are having the same issues.
From what I have read, it’s a compatibility issue between WebControlCaptcha.dll and ASP.Net 2.0 (which is what my site is running on right now). I will try to find out if there is an easy way to fix this problem (I can’t simply revert back to ASP.Net 1.1 since many new pages I added were in 2.0). Stay tuned…
