I have been reading up on several ways to prevent spambots from spamming web forms. I came up with a simple technique that doesn't use image validation but simple number validation. Each time a user enters my form, I generate a unique ID and a 5-7 digit number code. I save this unique ID to a database along with its associated number code. When the form is submitted, if hidden field unique ID is the same and number code you typed is correct it submits the info and deletes the record, otherwise it will assume spam and not submit info. Again, it can be broken but that come into how complex I display the 5-7 digit code. Visit: http://www.atksolutions.com/contact.php
..for an example.
So far it has worked

Be careful when selecting the names for fake fields. "Subject" might be ok, but "Name" will be populated by the AutoFill feature of the Google Toolbar if used and thus cause real entries to be blocked as SPAM. Web Development by Innovative Technology Solutions, Inc.

Just added it to my site, let see how it goes, it is also good practice to have a form validation checking if telephone numbers are actual numbers, and email addresses are email addresses, but i personally don't like CHAPTCHA as it can cause frustration to the user.
