I reinstalled latest build of anti spam and it seemed to solve the problem :-(

Very strange I'll try to investigate further and let you know. Could it be related to CORS and htaccess as we use https ?

Shouldn't matter, but if latest release fixes it then it could've been a bug that's already fixed. Google reCaptcha sets a hidden input value using JS. Then on POST a CURL call is sent with the input valid to ensure it's valid. If the JS fails to set the input is then it'd fail to validate on POST, but likely validated fine in the browser. That's often where it fails and is usually due to already existing JS errors present on the page.

Strangely our users have the same problem once again and we did not change anything on the server but update acymailing which has nothing to do.

For now I have set back the default captcha code of CB.Is it a problem ? are they any advantages of using Google ?

I cannot find where the problem lies as we have no js error (see activ-ha.com/inscription )

Either are fine to use. The internal modes are going to be faster. I'm not sure how it's failing either. I've retested it several times and am unable to confirm your issue. Do you have caching enabled? If so it could be a Joomla or server side caching issue.

If the regular captcha mode is working then it's submitting the input perfectly fine for validation (both usages use the same API except during validation where 1 is an HTTP call to Google). Will review adding error output for the reCaptcha HTTP call to see if that's where it could be failing.

yes we use jot components for cache system.
This is weird as recaptcha is working very well on other pages com_hotspots for instance (same API keys)

For now I'll stick with internal mode until you add error output.
Let me know, not that I like google, but version 2 is much nicer for users :-)
