Log:
hrm, got a spam last night after enabling this plugin - I realized that on my other sites I use stylesheets instead of type=hidden.  Either way will work with this plugin, but I think style sheets work better, at least until they figure out this trick.

+IMPORTANT CHANGE in 1.2, you must set the value to "" rather than
+"GetOut!" or whatever you might have used in previous versions.  This
+should work even better against spammers.

+Alternate method - I don't know if the spammers are smart enough to
+read the display: none thing, so I (jondaley) do it is like this:
+style.css
+.validate{
+  display: none;
+}
