 * Hello everybody. I get the well known “Error, please enable javascript and try
   again…” message every time I log in to my WordPress blog. I tried to disable 
   all the plugins (via phpMyAdmin) with no success. Then I tried to disable them
   by renaming the plugins/ directory and it worked, or at least I’ve been able 
   to log in. After logging in, I renamed back the directory and all my plugins 
   were back and running, I just had to enable them. Then I logged out. Then I logged
   back in and here we go again.
 * This time I renamed the directory, I logged in, I re-renamed the directory and
   logged out leaving all the plugins disabled, then I logged back in. And there
   it is again, the infamous error. So my best guess is that some plugin is playing
   bad at include time, or something (I’m not so familiar with WordPress’ plugin
   system). I also excluded it was Firefox’s fault, since I get the same error with
   Chromium (Google Chrome source distribution).
 * The only way I can think of to find out which plugin is acting weird is deleting
   all of them and then putting them back one at a time but it’s something I’d rather
   not do unless it’s necessary, since as you can easily guess, it’s quite a lot
   of work given I have no shell other than ftp in my remote host.
 * So here’s the content of the directory, maybe some of you knows who’s bad.
 *     ```
       akismet
       anti-captcha
       feedburner_feedsmith_plugin_2.3
       google-sitemap-generator
       hello.php
       lightbox-2
       pushpress
       timezone.php
       ultimate-google-analytics
       vipers-video-quicktags
       wp-footnotes
       wp-syntax
       ```

 * Apparently “anti-captcha” was causing the problem. It was easier than I thought
   since it is the only one to output that exact error string. I think I can live
   with Akismet but I don’t like to overload the server so I wanted to pre-screen
   the comments.
 * Any feasible solution?
