Sometimes good comments get caught up but I can recover them since I'll be checking the list when I get online. I'm using <a href="http://www.sebbi.de/archives/2006/01/31/spam-karma-2-akismet-plugin/" rel="nofollow">this plugins</a> that allow me to use both.I was also using Bad Behavior but it had unrecoverable effects like denying people of even posting things or using my contact form. So I disabled it.But as I said, I'm still testing the combinations that work best. If the current fails then CAPTCHA will have its turn.How about you Thilak? How did you come to the conclusion of using CAPTCHA? Any personal experiences?Thanks indeed buddy for the recommendation.

How about you Thilak? How did you come to the conclusion of using CAPTCHA? Any personal experiences?

Thanks indeed buddy for the recommendation.
