CAPTCHA is the acronym for “Completely Automated Public Turing test to tell Computers and Humans Apart" and was developed in 2000 by information scientists at the Carnegie Mellon University, USA. Web-based services such as Yahoo require users to recognize and type a randomly generated series of letters or numbers which appear on the screen as a CAPTCHA image. This test is designed to ensure that a web form is not being completed by the automatic scripts used by spammers. But sometime it is also for humans quite hard to decrypt the distored letters and numbers while the software by spammers still often succeeds. Unlike every other file on the Internet each code is uniquely generated by a script on the server and is disposed once it has been used. It will never appear again online in this very form.
