I can usually get them, but it's not fun, and a lot of sights still don't
offer audio. It's much easier with headphones. And when some of the words
are numbers do you type the number or spell it. I usually spell it and that
usually works, but a lot of sites only give you 30 seconds to 3 minutes to
complete the recognition process. I don't know why all sites don't just go
to that process of asking simple math problems or rhyming challenges to
prove that the person filling it out isn't a bott. That should be nearly as
effective and so much easier.

I always give those a shot, but I think I have only gotten them to work a
couple of times. It's almost a given that the request for words or
characters doesn't seem to match the audio presentation. They ask for two
words, I hear three or more. And the garbling with background noise
exacerbates the problem.

I think the audio option is almost as difficult! lol Tried at least 20
times, or whatever the max is that locks you out, on windows Live account to
reset my password. tried again in a few days and got it on the third try.
