captcha doesn't hook the admin/user/create function, so "Administer -> Users -> Add" displays no captcha. This behavior is correct. However, upon submitting the new-user info, I get form validation error: "Please re-recognize the word shown in the image." This is captcha trying to validate user-input against the session variable, which of course doesn't exist because there was no captcha image / function-call in the admin create-user form page.

This may be an interaction bug with user.module (why is it hooking captcha on validate and not on form?) -- I didn't spelunk deeply enough to say for sure. In any case, captcha.module needs to be made "admin aware."

Or maybe I'm just stupid and broke it myself? Let me know.

Oops - my bad -- turns out this was addressed in 20-Oct-2004 release of module. Sorry!

My new rule: download twice, report bugs once. ;-)
