Thanks Nant for your Quick reply.
Can you clarify in simplified language points 2 & 3 ? Maybe with some examples
first of all - have you verified that you have freetype support?
if yes, then please let us know what language file-plugin you are using.
if you are using a language plugin then perhaps you have a UTF-8 encoded language file in which case perhaps your file has BOM chars in the begining - google BOM to see what this is.
if the language file is ok or if you are using the default english file then perhaps your template is introducing some html code that interferes with captcha image generation. To verify this - if you are using your own template - you can activate the joomla preinstalled template.
Ok so if you have determined that there is a problem with the template, what needs to be done to correct it.

I can confirm:
It works like a charm.
My settings are:
GD 2.0
CB 1.0.2
Joomla 1.0.12
Great work. And fast as well 
Thanks.
Same here, and I am extremely pleased with how well it works...now that I finally remembered to rename the original Login and Registration PHP files. Bots just call those out by name, so at first I was still getting spambots registering. (doh!)
Now however, I have gone from several spambot registrations per day to *none* in over two weeks! Woot! You guys own!

One thing i noticed with some of the ppl having the same problems,
the url of the image
http://opensourcepoint.com/cioforum/index2.php?option=com_comprofiler&task=tabclass&Itemid=1&tab=getcaptchatab&no_html=1
this url shows the image for some of the users here ( i tried the URLS ) But in my case you'll see that image is not showing at that URL.

I was hoping some more info from you Nant, I am little kind of disappointed 
I am still in trouble. My host provider does not give any tech support at all.
I checked and I do not have the libraries and neither the Image Magic that is probably supposed to be installed before libraries.
The worse is that I do not have root access, but I am sure there most be a way to install this libraries and Image Magic through ftp or Joomla installations manager????? Am I wrong?
I trust you know a way to do it….!!!!!!!

please PM me a URL and backend access and I will take a look (when I get some time) - perhaps you have encountered another system that is blocking the image generation.
