How to cheat captcha

Not sure how many compers know this but hope it will help those who don't know. reCAPTCHA only has 1 word needed to type. Full info is on the link below.

That's very interesting, thanks for that. Any tip that helps cut down on typing is fab in my book.:T

I've been entering comps today using this so it's not changed yet if it is going to

They mix it up much more now, both with the way the two words look and the need to type both on occasions as well.

I knew you didn't need to, but I like to type both words, as I like the idea of contributing to more scanned books becoming available online and through e-readers It takes me less than 2 seconds per word, so it wouldn't be a great time-saver for me anyway.

Same here :T

In the time it takes for you to have to re-type if you type the wrong one, you could have done the two and helped at the same time

I saw it a while ago that it had been tweaked and you had to type both in. Think it was on the ITV comps that it had been pointed out.

I tried it today on a couple of comps and had to type in both. That was the Sun comp and Barclay's ticket office. Must depend on which competition you enter.
