I just emailed myself that article, and there was no Captcha? Only had to disable NoScript to get the E-mail popup to show. That's normal. I hadn't noticed, but the captcha does not appear until you type something in the message box of the email popup. On the systems with the fault, all I see is a message: Word verification prevents automated systems from adding spam messages to your email. On Opera or IE, one also sees the captcha and a field to fill out. -- Kevin O'Gorman, PhD

Konqueror gives me unrelated trouble, which I'm still working on -- I don't use it in general so I'm not surprised, but I cannot say what it does with captchas. -- Kevin O'Gorman, PhD
