User Profile 1.7 how to change to Math Captcha?

Seriously, I'm getting a lot more spam when using re-captcha than without it. Spammers seem to detect which site has re-captcha and spam on them. I've tried 2 step registration with MATCH text at the end, still, spammers are able to go through it. With my experience, math captcha is the most effective way of getting rid of spam. I don't get any from my contact forms.

Can someone please teach me how to make math captcha on User Profile. random numbers from 0-9 addition and subtraction. if $a > $b then use subtraction.

I'm using XOOPS 2.4.4 and User Profile 1.7

Thanks!

Thank you Jimmy for trying to help but I've tried that already and it doesn't seem to work. This is my /class/captcha/config.php

return $config = array(
'disabled' => false, // Disable CAPTCHA
'mode' => 'text', // default mode
'name' => 'xoopscaptcha', // captcha name
'skipmember' => true, // Skip CAPTCHA check for members
'maxattempt' => 10, // Maximum attempts for each session
'num_chars' => 4, // Maximum characters
'rule_text' => _CAPTCHA_RULE_TEXT,
'maxattempt_text' => _CAPTCHA_MAXATTEMPTS);

I also have /Frameworks/captcha/ but I have tried renaming the folder, it still shows image captcha. I've tried editing the /Frameworks/captcha/config.php file to text, the problem is still there.

I also had SecurityImage module installed. But I have now disabled and uninstalled the module but the problem still exists.

not work for me too.
it is just resist on "image" mode. i cant active "text" or "recaptcha"
i try everything. update profile and system module and delete all caches.


besides i need to know whether we can still use the great filters of protector module coded by GIJOE. especially i want to active the "postcommon_register_insert_js_check.php" because it works great on public bots.

Is there any one here that can enable "text" or "recaptcha" in xoops 2.5.5 and profile 1.63?
just "image" option works.

Edit:
this problem is solved.
I just need to delete the old folder: /Frameworks/captcha
Now both "text" or "recaptcha" works
