    if it's in php captcha's usually use sessions to create a random alphanumeric code, if you can read the session(highly unlikely) then you have a chance, otherwise, i cant think of anything else, if there's a way to break captchas that easily, you wont see a lot of captcha's around

    I second creativeGenius on that. Captchas are there for a reason. Of course you can break a very poor quality captcha. But then, most of them are pretty good by now.

    Yeah, I have a feeling no one here is going to help you spam THEIR sites.

    you have to wonder why the service they offer didnt last long... you dont even know if the service is using automated scripts or if they're using actual humans to input the codes manually (lol)

    lol captcha is a turing test basically if you can beat it with a robot then go for it. Turing test is a test of whether AI will be able to comprehend difficult tasks that only humans can currently do. The more you train the robot, the better it becomes and the greater the need to make an even more powerful turing test.
