Re: Accessible Captcha

We did an analysis of ReCaptcha for a project over a year ago, and opinion 
was it was a fairly nice implementation. It has since been acquired by 
Google. Here's a posting that both discusses the acquisition and the 
history of ReCaptcha.

I've heard good things about the accessibility of ReCaptcha: can anyone 
comment on whether this is true?

Dear Maggie,

Mollom (http://www.mollom.com) is the most accessible audiocaptcha I know 
of. 
I recently put up a WordPress blog with the Mollom captcha for test 
purposes:

Put the word "SPAM" in the commentfield and submit the comment to trigger 
the captcha. 

Kind regards,

Gijs

Hi all
 
Does anyone have an example of a website where a  Captcha implementation 
 is done well, in terms of accessibility.
 
Much appreciated
 
Maggie
