Couldn't view the front page without solving a captcha. Then, once I did a search, I had to solve more captchas after every other page of results. I cannot browse beyond two pages without a captcha!! :frown: :|

This is madness!!

I cannot use microsoft's search engine without solving CAPTCHAs over and over again. :roll:

Have you ever thought it could be you? Why would Microsoft create a search engine that requires a captcha everytime? That makes 0 sense whatsoever.

You never know until you ask. Could be MS's new policy.
I quit trying after the 3rd captcha.

I guess since no one else is chiming in with the same issue, it's just me. If you all would rather discuss 90s alternative music, that's cool.

Yeah it is just you. Could be spyware or a virus?
 
Are you using Opera or some kind of proxy OP? Maybe you're somehow identifying as a robot, only thing I can think of. I've had to solve Captchas for Google before, but only after doing a ton of searches in a row. Never had one on Bing.

Trying Bing again ... no captchas yet, wouldn't you know ... still none.
Maybe it likes to have cookies from previous sessions around to make it more trusting.

I tried using Bing several times.

I'll stick with Google, but thanks for the retarded half-assed effort, M$.
 
I actually really like bing and have switched over from google. The results are very good and its just nice to look at something different after so many years of google.

Microsoft Bing never gave me captchas, what ever the hell they are. There is no trust issue or cookie issue. You have spyware.
