Heeelllppppp! I'm going contact forms plugin crazy!

I've been spending, on and off, at least two days studying various contact form and/or form generation plugins. And they weren't 8 hour days. ... And. ... I'm about to tear my hair out. (I figured setting up a contact form would be a no brainer ... not!)

What I'm after is something that doesn't require a degree in PHP and CSS to setup, good looking or at least decent looking, is at least somewhat configurable, goes on a separate page, and has the security chops to not ultimately load me down with tons of spam.

Just about everything I've researched seems to either not have been updated since the last blue moon, or has tons of "issues" which don't seem to have been responded to, or has "performance" problems or ... well ... take your pick. Just about the time I see one that seems to make sense I get onto the forum here or on WordPress and find there are issues with it (like FormBuilder seeming to have a significant performance hit).

Here are the ones that I've narrowed it down to (if you can call it "narrowing"). I'd appreciate input from y'all on what works and what doesn't (in no particular order):

1. WordPress-Ready Contact Form V2.0WP (looks decent but not sure):

2. WP Contact Form: (seems too simple and not secure at all)

3. Contact Form 7: (seems very coding intensive to set up but a lot of downloads)

4. Tiny Contact Form (probably too simple all the way around)

5. FormBuilder: (looks pretty slick and fairly secure but I've seen comments on performance hits)

Thanks in advance.
