Personally I'm of the opinion that if the spambot can defeat the captcha then 
practically any other type of hurdle you through at them that doesn't require 
human intervention is pointless.

As of now the only type of captcha that appears to work %100 is questycaptcha 
unless ReCaptcha has been fixed.
