I never bother with audio captchas, because they almost never work. I find Webvisum and Solona to be better alternatives.

I have a question about captias. What if you go to a site and are asked to enter the things you hear and you go to that link to hear the audio and it does not come up. I went to a site and went to the link to listen to an audio captia and nothing happened. I went to two different sites so I think it is my computer and I don't know what the problem is. Hope some one can answer this query.

Once you submit an image file of a captcha to Solona, it takes less than a minute for the operator to decode it and return the result to you. Solona relies on a network of volunteers to serve as operators, so there is usually someone standing by most of the time.

How fast would that "so-called sighted help standing by" get back with the information? You only have so much time to complete the form on most pages with forms before the page times out. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Gerald Levy" <bwaylimi...@verizon.net>

In addition to Firefox with Webvisum, there is another service called Solona that solves those nasty captchas (not captures. Visit the Solona site to register and click on the Learn link for a detailed explanation of how it works. Briefly, using a special tool that you download from Solona, you create an image file of the captcha and submit it to Solona, where a sighted human operator, standing by, decodes it and returns it to you in text format that you can copy and paste into the appropriate edit field.

Hi Listers

Can anyone tell me how to get around captures on websites? Even where there
is an audio version it's hard to get the information from them.

Thanks in anticipation.
