I agree Simon but hold on a minute, I am in the same boat as you. Now when there is a visual capture certainly on the BBC website for example, there is the option to listen to distorted speech. Have you come across that one? Crazy stuff, the speech having to be distorted but there you are. What if the visually impaired person also has hearing difficulty? ----- Original Message ----- From: "goshawk on horseback" <goshawk_on_horseback@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>

first, as webvisum doesn't work with IE, it is not a viable option. second, no, I can't code, so that is not an option. third, now that solona doesn't work, not using anything with the number of captchas I come across, is also not an option.forth, it is precisely this sort of "that's that" attitude that stops thingsgetting done, where as if more people actually bothered to stand up and be counted, an IE version of webvisum could well be on the cards. fifth, please don't take that bossy attitude with me.at the current time, I have no where to direct my complaints about the lackof an IE version of webvisum.

Maybe but theirs no tool for it so use webvisum. If not then stop complaining and don't use anything I agree with you it would be nice if webvisum worked with IE as well but it doesn't and that's that if you can code then write a program your self.

Not true! If you use firefox there is an add on called Webvisum that solves captchas for you. ----- Original Message ----- From: "goshawk on horseback"<goshawk_on_horseback@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx> To:<access-uk@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> Sent: Thursday, February 23, 2012 11:36 AM Subject: [access-uk] Re: what's happened to solona?typical! the one service that really solved the problems we have with captchas, and it has to get screwed up!
