Summary: IPv6 Patch for reCaptcha Plugin

Initial Comment:
reCaptcha currently doesn't work with IPv6 addresses. I contacted the reCaptcha staff and they told me to just send 0.0.0.0 as IP address instead of the IPv6 address.

So that is what I did. The patch looks for an ":" in the IP address and, if it finds one, sends 0.0.0.0 instead.

Oh you're right, I didn't think about it that way. I'll ask the ReCaptcha
Staff about that.

Message:
Hi!

Thanks for the patch...but wouldn't it be better to patch the API instead?
Because this way, once ipv6 gets supported by recaptcha we would need to
patch the s9y plugin once again to re-allow ipv6...

Best regards,
Garvin
