One of the services in question is the India based decaptcher.com, which will allow you to retrieve its API once you putIndia CAPTCHA breakers money in their PayPal account." http://blogs.zdnet.com/security/?p=1835 Regards -- Dancho Danchev Cyber Threats Analyst/Blogger http://ddanchev.blogspot.com http://blogs.zdnet.com/security http://windowsecurity.com/Dancho_Danchev _______________________________________________ Full-Disclosure - We believe in it.
