I am currently sitting with the problem of getting 'incorrect' captcha's from Acymailing, RSforms, Chronoforms5 and chronoforms V4. I have tested on xampp, wamp, live hosting and a bunch of others, In case it was my on my side. I do have the latest Joomla installed.
I work with a group of people and we all have the same issue, Here is what happens:
This is the captcha that i get (chronoforms5):
*img1
If I enter that captcha it fails, however if I open Firebug and inspect the image, this is what i see:
*img2
Now if i enter that captcha its successful, And I have this issue with virtually all of the captcha's on this website, including: RSforms, Chronoforms and Acymailing.
Any Help with this Issue would be Fantastic.

Hi widlowy,
Two things here.
First the image is generated on page load and includes a random string - when you re-examine the link a new image is generated with a new random string. That explains the apparent discrepancy.
Second the ChronoForms Captcha is separate and different from the captchas used by AcyMailing and RSForms. If they are all failing that does suggest a site-related problem. Do you have caching turned on for the site? If so, please test with it off (and clear the cache before testing). Most of these anti-spam methods involve generating a random key and linking that to the current user. If the page is cached then it will serve up a previously generated image most of the time.
