When considering these things, it's worth being aware of cheap services
like that will solve captchas in 15 seconds at a cost of $1.39 for 1000
solved CAPTCHAs.:

Some forum managers report this service works.  Captcha passing doesn't
necessarily mean a forum visitor is a human.  They could be a bot who uses
a cheap Captcha breaking service.
