Don’t use this. Keep the web open and accessible! This will make your comment form inoperable for many mobile users, and people with handicaps that are using Braille browsers and so on. Javascript should NEVER be a requirement to USE your web site, and the spammer will find a way around garbage methods like this anyway.

I’ve been using HashCash on my wordpress sites for about 6 months. Definitely has cut down on spam by probably 60%

[...] Hashcash — block most spam without making users deal with a CAPTCHA. This can also be used in conjunction with a CAPTCHA or with Akismet (which should be on every WordPress site). [...]

Hello,
thanks for your great plugin!
I get the impression that spam bots have managed to execute Javascript by now – during the last week I had around 6 spams that came through hashcash without any warning, but when I looked them up on Google they showed like 20k hits (so I would not believe that anyone is writing them manually)…
Did you make any similar observations lately?
Cheers from Germany

You seem to mention desktop browsers, but at a glance I saw no mention of compatibility with mobile phone browsers…. So posting a comment from an android (SGS with Froyo) phone.
