why would you want an anti-spam control on the search page, it is not possible to spam anything from the search page<

If you want to make the letters more readable you need to open captcha.asp and make alterations there.
sub Lines draws random lines across the image
sub Circles draws random circles across the image
sub drawcode() draws the letters using different colours and random x & y offsets
sub Grid (colour) draws a grid across the image
These subs are called in different orders randomly to produce different effects i.e.
You could add another case at the end that would just draw the code without any obfuscation (lines, circles or grids across the image) and always call it
You're better off to use Gatekeeper in my opinion.
Edit: I agree with HuwR about the search page. A better option might be to restrict searching to members only<

just because someone else has something does not necesarily mean it is a good or even useful thing to have. Tools are useful when used for the purpose they were designed for, having an antispam tool on a page that can not be spammed is just going to annoy the hell out of your members.
Gatekeeper is an antispam MOD that works in the same way as a CAPTCHA but without the visual difficulties associated with an image based CAPTCHA<

DOS attacks on forums usually hit the search page hard since it generates a lot of resource usage. I would do it in a heartbeat if I had that problem, but not just for the sake of doing it.<

Gatekeeper is better in my opinion as it can be read by Screen Readers i.e. visually impaired people can use them.<

Well you really need to have some enemies before it's likely to happen to you.
It's automated attacks designed to slow or bring down your server. Forums are hit on the search page usually because it's the most server intensive spot. Captcha would thwart a robot. But as I said, if you don't have that problem all your likely to do is inconvenience your users.
I hang out on some forums that expose internet bad guys that get attempted DOS attacks on thier forums frequently, so they have Captcha on just about everything.... and it works.<

how do i prevent dos attack?....prevent non members from accessing the search page, better to prevent them completely than piss off your users, or if you want search exposed then only use a CAPTCHA for NON members<
