phpbb "pass the captcha test"

It turned up some interesting hits:

Suppress "you now also have to pass the CAPTCHA test" message for invisible CAPTCHAs

One of my Admins is locked out

Error 'The solution you provided was incorrect' on new recapcha mode

Cannot login to ACP and users can't login at all

The problem appears to be related to enhanced anti-spammer measures on the server's end, and I may have found a quick fix. Who has admin rights on the user list? Please edit septembersapphire21's account and change the login attempts field to zero. Notify septembersapphire21 that you did this, and ask them to try logging in from the laptop now.

If this doesn't work, I'll have to do some more digging (and contact Matt about any recent changes to the board's software).

It does work now, I'm able to log in on my new laptop! Thank you!
