Capcha Codes are designed to keep spammers of the internet and hope fully out of your mailbox. Capcha codes are a series of numbers and letters that appear fuzzy and distorted and look somewhat like this:
Many members on myspace for example are considering leaving because of the Capcha Code problems, for example.. trying to send an email to someone quickly and finding that the Capcha Code is typed wrong. This makes the sender have to redo the email and resend and sometimes they get locked out of their accounts.
The 3 Big Email Servers, Hotmail, Yahoo and Google have implemented this into their email as a way to stop spambots and spammers alike. These are generated by both humans and computer and these codes are still being cracked allowing spammers to set up ficticious email addresses flooding your email with junk mail or spam. Someone should come up with something that is impossible to crack. But then again to quote an article from Washington Post.. " Making tests harder for the computer, makes it harder for humans as well".
Capcha Codes what do you think? Do they bother you?
