whats is captcha for?

whats is captcha for it is illegal or not?

it's to verify you are human and not a bot

yeah, you have to enter a number/letter string from an image file into a text field. Some bots can beat a captcha.

This can help make sure people don't abuse a service by bogging it down with a ton of automated requests... good example is in submitting galleries to cetain sites. Also, most of the tools at seochat.com require you to enter one

And no, it's not illegal at all.. trying to beat one may be a violation of terms of service in certain situations

A CAPTCHA (IPA: /ˈkæptʃə/) is a type of challenge-response test used in computing to determine whether the user is human. "CAPTCHA" is a contrived acronym for "Completely Automated Public Turing test to tell Computers and Humans Apart", trademarked by Carnegie Mellon University. The process involves one computer (a server) asking a user to complete a simple test which the computer is able to generate and grade, but not able to solve on its own. Because computers are unable to solve the CAPTCHA, any user entering a correct solution is presumed to be human.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Captcha

It is something you use to prevent spammers, hackers, scrapers, and other "surfers" that are controled by a computer, not a human. Only humans are supposed to be able to read them,

Occasionally a computer can too, depending on the captcha and the right code to "solve" it.

this is a captcha:

This thread was probably a lame attempt at spamming his services... obviously marketing is not his thing though...

I use a team of captcha decoders for running my craigslist ads
