i'm glad to have them...would much rather mess with them suckers than have spam-central.

oh just hush and clean my windows like you promised lol...

Seriously, there must be a better way, i found my password, but still....that justs annoys the heck out of me....ok, go ahead with the you can't read stuff....

Shshsshshshh done told ya I don't do window so I suggest you learn to do them yourself. I will supervise for you to make sure you get every tiny little spot.

I understand everyone's frustration, but imagine how frustrating it would be if there were no verification and spam-bots (automated software that scours the internet looking for places to post annoying promotions and links, often obscene web sites) were allowed to post without any obstacles. Such spam-bots are very sophisticated, to the point of having graphic recognition algorithms (which is why the letters and numbers are often so difficult for people to read, since the goal is to obscure the details from spam-bots). Without captchas (the name of those verification code programs), most of the sites that require signup would be overwhelmed with fake accounts, and public submission sites would become completely useless. It's certainly unfortunate, but it's the reality.

The real problem presents itself in accessibility issues. Vision-impaired individuals often rely upon text-to-audio programs to interact with the web, and these captchas cannot be read — preventing the vision-impaired from effectively using many web sites. Section 508 of the Disabilities Act protects the vision-impaired when it comes to accessibility to U.S. governmental and not-for-profit web sites, but does not apply to commercial web sites. (Some countries have enacted similar legislation that extends to commercial sites.) So, web site owners are faced with the difficult task of making accessible web sites while preventing spam software from overrunning them. Most site owners opt for spam prevention and forego the issue of accessibility entirely. There are audio captchas (but not in widespread use) that might provide an acceptable alternative — a barrier to spam-bots, but accessible if given audio and graphical captcha options.
