Hi Ibrahim,I've got it now, thanks. Barbara kindly put me in the right direction. I obviously hadn't found the instructions because I hadn't registered. (I don't like just to register with any site until I am sure of what I'm registering for ...) Anyway, I'll be using it in the future - and thanks!

Hi Carol. Sure, all this information is on the Solona website anyhow, but essentially what your doing is taking a snapshot of the screen using the print screen function, copying it to a graphic program in this instance Microsoft Paint and then saving that as a colour bitmap image. You then upload that image to Solona and an operator will examine the image and try to solve the capcha for you. Once its been solved a message gets pasted to the status screen for the upload and then you can read the text using your virtual cursor. If you want more info, I suggest you check out the instructions on Solona, but I've successfully used this method to join Spotify among other websites which require capchas to be solved. All the best, Ibrahim. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Carol Pearson" <carol.pearson29@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx> To: <access-uk@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> Sent: Saturday, May 30, 2009 5:33 PM Subject: [access-uk] Re: IpadioIbrahim, Can you give us more detail about how you do this. I mean, can you enlarge on your comment that you send a bitmap graphic image of the web page with the capcha and a live operator interprets th ecapcha for you and presents it to you in a text form How do you actually do this? -- Carol carol.pearson29@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx ---- Original Message ---- From: "Ibrahim Gucukoglu" <ibrahim_gucukoglu@xxxxxxxx> To: <access-uk@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> Sent: Saturday, May 30, 2009 5:21 AM Subject: [access-uk] Re: IpadioHi. If you've problem with capcha's, you could try www.solona.net which is a capcha resolution service. Unlike WebVism, you don't need special browser software or to install any other software programs or plugging, you simply have to send a bitmap graphic image of the web page with the capcha and a live operator interprets the capcha for you and presents it to you in a text form. I think this is one of the best services around for visually impaired as it removes the need for getting sighted help to deal with capchas and its entirely free to use for anyone.

Unfortunately, the registration process includes filling in a CAPTCHA, which, although there is an audio link, is virtually impossible without sighted help. Even if you wish to post an enquiry there is still the dreaded CAPTCHA to fill in. Has anyone started using the service? I would be interested to hear any feedback.
