Good evening everyone,
Another alternative is to install a utility that does spam checking in the
background requiring no interaction by the visitor. I've written about one
such Web utility called CFFormProtect. To use this module your Web site must
be running on a server with ColdFusion installed. I suggested that we see if
such Web utilities exist for other Web language environments i.e. ASP.NET,
PHP, Ruby-on_Rails, etc. These would be a far better way to protect Web
forms from spam bots without denying access to specific populations such as
blind Web surfers.
I don't know if it's the sites I'm visiting or what but lately I have
not run in to as many CAPTCHAS as I did in recent years. Perhaps folks are
getting the message and employing other spam checking alternatives to
CAPTCHAS.

Hello Gary,
The only accessible captcha solving service I know of is Webvisum.
You have to have Firefox installed for webvisum. Please let me know
if you would like me to invite you to the service. Please give me
your email address if you would like an invitation. Invitations are
the only way to get invited to webvisum.
Nathan
