"forward" is a nice module enabling a user to email a page on the site to someone else.. if captcha can be applied to it, the utility of the forward module can be fully harvested. Currently, the captcha points does not include ability to do so.

The version of the CAPTCHA module for Drupal 4.7.x is practically unsupported. From http://drupal.org/node/150535#comment-627216 :

Well, the best way to fix this is upgrading to Drupal 5 and CAPTCHA 5.x-3.0.
CAPTCHA version 5.x-2.x and earlier (including the 4.7.x) are known to be buggy/unstable.
In version 5.x-3.x, the CAPTCHA module got a mayor overhaul and the module is now much better.
It is very unlikely that the improvements will be backported to drupal 4.7.x.
Especially now that Drupal 6 is getting shape, the priority for us, the CAPTCHA maintainers, is to port CAPTCHA to Drupal 6 and not to a version that will be outdated soon.
Note that the 5.x-3.0 overhaul was not something trivial, backporting it to 4.7.x would practically mean rewriting it from scratch. We can't invest time on this.
Sorry.
Is there any particular reason you still using Drupal 4.7?
