Overview
reCAPTCHA security features on their websites. A CAPTCHA is a program that can tell whether its user is a human or a computer. You've probably seen them -- colorful images with distorted text at the bottom of Web registration forms. CAPTCHAs are used by many websites to prevent abuse from bots, or automated programs usually written to generate spam.
