Has any forgot there password and had read those letters that look like a snake

That's to make sure that software can't be used to fill forms in rather than a person doing it. The words or series of letters are'nt in text form, they are an image so that only humans can read them, (and me)

hello, nice question, many people don't understand why we have to do it again and agian....a few days back, my little sister asked me what is that and i had to tell her about it. but reading the posts above, you might have already understood what it is, and i guess i needn't tell it now. catchpa -that is what it is called , as one of the posts above has already given the answer...:-)

Are you talking about the box with various letter, or numbers that are in an array of different order, like caps or lower case, and numbers but they run together or or jumbled to try and make it hard to understand? I have to change it sometimes as I can't read the one that is shown first. It's a security thing and it also proves that you are not spamming.

Hello RockCollector, Yes,I have forgotten my password a few times. I request the site to send me my password and they do except for pay pal. they said they would send it but they never did.I have not went back there yet,So I have not tried to get it again.I don't think I have experienced the snake like letters. If I did I don't remember,The old brain does not work sometime.(lol). You have a good day.

It is called as catchpa.It is to confirm that we are human beings.Some some information about catchpa the catchpa server automatically generates an unique image everytime.And if there is some problem with your IP address even if you fill the catcpha exactly,it shows some error...The text version of the catchpa is already fed into the servers computer everytime,as you type the sever compares it with already loaded text catchpa prototype,if it matches you will be directed to the next page else you will be asked to retype it...
