aloha, leif! so, is it no longer politically incorrect to say that english is the lingua franca of the web / web based technologies? (wink) i think that JohnF hit the nail on the head when he pointed out the advantages of universal password solutions such as those that allow you to verify yourself by logging into a service such as twitter or facebook or by using OpenID type solutions, if not OpenID itself... the alternative to CAPTCHA type challanges is verification of humaness which transpires under-the-hood, in the background, after an initial challange (such as a specific userID and password combination) gregory. ------------------------------------------------------------------ "Kill the rattlesnake that gives no warning; spare the one that does." -- Lenni Lenape proverb ------------------------------------------------------------------ Gregory J.
