Pass/codes

Not sure if this is the right place??

Anyone else experience this?:- You hit a link for a d/load for example & it gives a code to enter. Not generally a problem. Just sometimes, the thing is ridiculously illegible. Just came across one - took about 8 attempts, until something appeared with relative clarity. Difficult to explain properly unless you've had the same problem.

I'm starting to even have trouble with Megaupload ones now - sign of age I guess - as well as the bloody things being ridiculously illegible!

I think it was one of theirs Skate. Nothing to do with age or eyesight, just fu**ed up for the sake of being fu**ed up I think. Idiots.

normaly if the site is well programed it will have a "speak letters" button but yeah yer rite somtimes they are a joke. my absolute fave was print only the letters containing a cat ??? they looked like a 2 yo had just jammed a crayon up its nose and sneezed it out hitting the screen...

Yup Captcha has been around for years but getting more prevalent and complicated as the bots get better at identifying characters.
Personally I think in the coming years captcha will progress to the next level that some are already playing with where an image is displayed and you type what you see. Problems abound with that at the moment though due to language and people's perception
