BrainBuster is a logic captcha plugin for Ruby on Rails. The 0.7  
release has been completely overhauled to have a much less obtrusive  
approach using only filters, instead of requiring code changes to  
actions. It also features enhanced security, tests (!), and overall  
goodness.

If you are upgrading, PLEASE see the readme - the old modules are  
deprecated and you should transition to the new filters if you want to  
use this release.

BrainBuster is can be seen in action on the official Rails wiki, or on  
the Madison Rails wiki ([madisonrails.com](http://madisonrails.com)).

This version also sees the move to google project hosting:

Now add the filters to the actions you want to protect, add the  
captcha form (\_captcha.rhtml) to the view, and you are all set to bust  
brains.
