[ZendTo] Recaptcha suddenly falling for multiple users

[Jules]

I've just put 4.20-2 on the website. The only change is this fix to 
upgrade_preferences_php.

Cheers,
Jules.

No one is in the Google site but me, and likewise no one gets into the server. But I verified the keys anyway and they are correct.

My server has mysql-5.5.45-1.el6.remi.x86_64 already installed, but the installed wanted mysql-5.1.73-7.el6. I could remove that, but then it wanted to remove zendto.noarch as a dependency and I could see that breaking the site. I may have to spin up a new server to transition to the new version.
