"Since its inception two years ago, the Captcha effort has been
building. Several research teams have joined the Captcha effort, trying to
make and break Captchas and even using the ideas behind Captchas for new
lines of research.
Researchers at the Palo Alto Research Center modified a program used
for scanning text to create a program that could solve certain types of
Yahoo-Gimpy puzzles, says Dr. Henry Baird, who was in charge of that
effort. The group is also developing a new text-based Captcha called
Baffletext that it hopes to license to e-commerce sites."
