    It won't eliminate 100% of them (even Google's ReCaptcha can be worked around, I've studied the subject some time ago), but it will stop a lot of them. Another interesting way to go is a maths challenge, so far I've had good success with it.

    Do you use Facebook ? Then you can make money just by inviting people to a Facebook group ! It's called the Instant Income System. How cool is that?

    It doesn't stop them completely but you'll reduce your inbox that's for sure.
    I'm seeing a lot of unique captcha's out there and it doesn't seem to be one kind of captcha anymore.

    The term captcha may sound strange at first but honestly we're all using it everyday of our lives.
