That's not a CAPTCHA. That's a legally binding contract you're about to sign, and entering those numbers proves your acceptance of it.

Yeah. SGP's product descriptions are full of terrible Engrish.

I agree, sounds like a line from the emails that I get from the ebay's Chinese sellers :biggrin:

On the subject of those stupid Capcha things, It pisses me off so much when its so illegible you have to enter it five times. Has anyone ever tried the 'listen to it' option? It sounds like a martian gargling a shot of ethanol under water.

I guess Rapidshare has one of those. Irritates the heck out of me

Yeah not sure why they have to make some of them that difficult. Given the state of computer character recognition you really don't have to do that much to make text very difficult for a computer to decipher (difficult enough for spammers to look elsewhere anyway) and still relatively easy to read.

I've heard that some bots were programmed to get around CAPTCHAs using the audio option...so CAPTCHA developers had to adapt and make them more difficult. Some bot programmers discovered the algorithms used to generate the "random" characters procedurally.

I couldn't read one of the damn captchas recently, so I used the audio option. The background sounded crazy, kinda like the loop from Lost...

Gah! My eyes!

Please don't do that again.

...well, it's made worse by the additional compression artifacts added AFTER the screenshot was made.

^^^ Chances are that one would be easy for a bot to read IMO.

Yeah the text doesn't look distorted, just clashing colours making it hard to read. Colours don't "clash" for a computer. As far as a computer is concerned 255,255,254 coloured text on a 255,255,255 background is clear as day.
