In 2.1 the captcha module would report the captcha was incorrect when doing a preview of a forum comment but it would still go through and move you to where you can post. Annoying but tolerable.

in 2.2. the captcha modules would report that captcha was incorrect when doing a both a preview and post of a forum comment and now does not let you post your comment.

I am only use the math captcha, but I do have textimage installed. Also this captcha point isn't supposed to be activated accourding to my configuration. See "Captcha does not obey captcha points"

Should be fixed in 3.x.

Hi Rob, could you please point me at the part of code that is responsible for this? I'm still using drupal 4.7, and I'm having the same problem; I tried to download the 3.x development version, but it's so different that I cannot just compare the files and find out what's changed. But if I knew where the error is, I might be able to backport the fix.

Any hints?

I think it would take a lot more than just "fixing some lines" in the 4.7 branch.

The 5.x-3.x branch is practically a complete rewrite, both in backend (use of dedicated database table) as in front end (easier, more user friendly UI and administration).

Did you try using the 5.x-3.x version of CAPTCHA on a Drupal 4.7 install? I guess you'll have to create the database table by hand, guided by the captcha.install file. But when that's done, does is work?
