Hallo.
You are using Joomla 2.5 - which have recaptcha inside. You have to enable it.

Read more details here: http://docs.joomla.org/How_do_you_use_R ... _Joomla%3F

This should help you.

p.s.
If not so much, you have to use different antyspam solutions from here:
1) http://extensions.joomla.org/extensions ... protection
2) http://extensions.joomla.org/extensions ... ty/captcha

I talk about it because sometimes it better to have at least two antyspam tools enabled ... since there are few tools that can break over 60% of recaptcha protections.

For my private websites I use contact form created by me, that using required additional field(s) that most of e-mail spam robots still can not brake. But you don't have to install components to build simple form, if you don't want to waste your precious time. :whistle:

Great! thank you for your help.
By the way, do you know how to change the login function, use email address as username?

Sure, even for Joomla 1.5 I saw & use such a extensions. Now there are available for both J2.5 and J3.x.
