Anyone good at reading captcha images?

    I don't know if its just me but I often come unstuck when I have to read a captcha image to register for something. Some captacha images are easy enough, but I struggle with the multicolored, multi-font ones. Can someone have a go at reading this captach image I've uploaded. I've tried 8 or 9 different combinations and haven't got it yet. It's driving me nuts :mad:

    Here it is : http://img219.imageshack.us/my.php?image=captcha1cf1.png

    Just post here with what you think it says.

    Thanks.

    Sometimes captchas are really tough to read actually its made tough so bots cant read so it takes more time to figure out the captcha

    I see 260848.

    It might just be a broken site. I came across gaming website that had a broken captcha. You just had to keep trying until you got in. Could be anywhere from first time to twentieth time. 'Twas rather irritating.

    No, the "o" is definitely an 8.

    Just to compete with the bots, the real human beings have to be extra smart in figuring out the captcha and more people do it right only in their second or third attempt. Time to redefine the captcha?

    I think the first one is "794848"

    And the second one, the one after the first one timed out is "260848"
