And I'm getting a ton of spam registrations as a result

It depends which CAPTCHA service you configured. All of them except for QuestyCaptcha and NoCaptacha are basically cracked and useless.
@kghbin I believe he's saying that the captcha isn't actually appearing on the registration page. I have the same problem with an otherwise effective questycaptcha.
ah, obviously I must have misunderstood. Well, which versions of MW, PHP and ConfirmEdit are used? Perhaps it is a bug, but this is just not enough information to work with.
Yes, MW 1.26 and a fresh download of confirmedit, simply isn't working like it was on my old install (I had to move hosts)
Actually with further testing it's not working at all even on edits. Getting close to just reverting to an older version of MW.
And seemingly randomly it now is... very confusing.
Did you add it to LocalSettings?
