[gui-talk] tearing my hair out

[qubit]

Someone on another list asked if solona placed a max on the number of 
captchas you can solve.  Anybody know?
Thanks.

Laura and listers: Have you tried Qwitter's Solona integration? I use it all
the time and it's a breeze!

Nowadays, CAPTCHA's are very easy for me.  I use Solona from
http://solona.net.  On top of that, I use Jamal Mazrui's IEMax.

http://EmpowermentZone.com/IEMax.exe

With IEMax installed, when I come to a CAPTCHA, I hit shift+Ctrl+0.  My
Solona login information is filled in and the image is automatically sent
there for the person to process it and tell me what it is.  I get messages
updating the situation, until I am told that the CAPTCHA has been copied to
the clipboard for me to paste into the appropriate box.  This all works with
Firefox as well.

A coworker has told me of a site called Salona that works with
Internet Explorer. I don't know the exact address, but am sure that
you could do a Google search for it. Also, for what it's worth, have
you considered running all of your personal mail through a web based
email service, like Gmail or Yahoo? This would give you access
anywhere and keep you from being tied to the inaccessible provider's
site.
