For me, the answer is this: www.solona.net
There's a handy tool you can install and run via termin.app which will really help wi the captcha issue. There's even a process you can do so that, in order to solve a captcha, you just snap a shot of the screen using shift+command+3 and then press a hot key you define to automatically send the image to Solona using your Solona ID and password. Thanks to Nickoli, this process is so painless, it's unbelievable. I personally guarantee it does work. Sincerely, The Constantly Barefooted Ray!!! Now A Very Proud and very happy Mac user!!!
