Account Lock Out and CAPTCHA

Post by Lah Ca »

I am away from home and using a laptop that has an unfortunately placed and highly sensitive touchpad mouse. I am also beset by a number of young cats. I also have a fairly complex password. Through some combination of these factors, I seem to have managed to lock myself out of my account here today by exceeding the maximum number of log in attempts (although I am not certain that I actually did).

I received a notice that in addition to supplying my credentials, I would have to pass a CAPTCHA test. In the bottom right corner of the screen, a CAPTCHA logo appeared, but I could find no way of launching the test.

Eventually, I just waited things out, trying to log in every so often. I eventually succeeded.

How does one start the CAPTCHA test?
