[nabs-l] Solving CAPTCHAS

[Humberto Avila]

I get that message too, and, all I can do, is just wait until the captcha
service is available--as you know, the  captcha service works remotely with
other humans, not computers, and the humans or human that do this solves
that captcha for you--yet, they don't even go into the website to do
it--they just look at a .PNG file you upload. 
I'm not sure how many people volunteer to do this, but when the message
"captcha solution is unavailable," that means that, in my opinion, no one is
currently available to volunteer with captchas.

Hope it makes sense.

Thanks for your thoughts, Humberto. Unfortunately, I'm not sure sure
it's all that reliable. When I've logged into Solona all afternoon,
all I get is:

"Captcha solution service unavailable."
