[RESOLVED] [2005] Question about Captacha image

[Mark107]

Hi guys

I need your help with the web browser control, I cant find any code that would get pass the automatic captacha image. I did a search but don't think any of them do get a pass or i might be wrong then?? The reason why i need to get pass the automatic captacha image, as i need to get pass on the registration form on my webpage.



I tried to create the code myself and seen to be impossible to get pass of the text image.


Hope there is situation for my need.


Thanks,
Mark

Wait, you want to 'get past' the captcha image, meaning you want to skip it? Isn't that exactly what a captcha is supposed to STOP? So in other words you want to hack your own website?

[Mark107]

Well I meant to say that, I wanted the project to read the words and numbers from the image and they could input them on the webpage textbox in order to get pass it. It did not mean I am trying to hack my own website. I just wanted to try and get pass to the registration form.


Are there any way to read the words and numbers then input on the webpage textbox??


Thanks,
Mark

So you want to create a program that reads the captcha image and automatically enters the string of letters into the textbox and submits the form..?

That sounds exactly like hacking to me... You are creating a bot designed to surpass security measures...?!

The captcha image is there to prevent exactly this! It is made so hard to read to stop computers from reading it... So I highly doubt you are going to be able to let your program read the image, and I am 100% sure you're not going to get any help form this forum...

Or am I completely missing your idea here..?!

[Mark107]

Yes, I am making a program that reads the captcha image and automatically enter the string of letters with words and numbers into the textbox but not submit the form or hacking.




Are there is a way to get pass the captcha by enter the string of letters into the textbox??


As I want to make a quick fill to the form textbox without typing any of the textbox, especially on the captacha image that i wish to get pass.


Thanks,

This is extremely hard and definately not the in realm of vb.net. Maybe it is but it is way slower.

You'll need to come up with a highly complex algorithm to bypass this. Its not easy. And You wont find help here.

[Mark107]

Thanks for the help. However if it is possible to make a quick captcha for human to write the letters without any cap on the textbox of the webpage??





if you type the letters without cap, you will get pass it.



If there possible to use for vb.net then I would appreciate it otherwise if it is impossible for my situation need then I will close the thread.



Let me know if possible.



Thanks,

Could you rephrase your question in your last post? I'm not sure I understand. However, I hope you're not still looking to retrieve the text in a captcha image, as that would be to violate this forums AUP.

[Mark107]

Right, I am looking for a quick captcha that when you type the letters without cap letters, you get pass it by human.



I hope it is possible to use it for vb.net if it not violate this forums AUP otherwise I will close the thread ??



Thanks,

Do anyone know how I could read the php code using with quickcaptcha on vb.net without adding the php code on my webpage so that I can input the uncap letters on the textbox to get pass??




Hope there is situations for my need.


Thanks,

Well, this is borderline shady as it can be used for spamming but since this is your own website, it can be legit as well (testing security, etc).

Having said that, what you want to do is extremely difficult. Think about it; if spam bots could easily read captchas then there would be no point to them.

A very simple captcha can be read without too much difficulty (you still need to use some sort of OCR technology or attempt to write that yourself (trust me, you don't want to)) can be read in with some work. A captcha as advanced as the one on your site? Good luck! It would be cheaper to pay someone to sit there and enter them.

That sounds exactly like hacking to me... You are creating a bot designed to surpass security measures...?!

Bypassing a captcha and hacking are very different. This is not hacking but could be used in spamming.

Well maybe not hacking, I couldn't find the right word for it... What I meant was that the captcha image is there to prevent exactly this kind of thing. It is there to prevent 'bots' (programs) to pass the registration, so if someone asks how to read a captcha image, there's a good chance they're trying to create a bot...

Did you guys read my 10th post?? I need to know if possible to read php code on vb.net using with quickcaptacha.



If it impossible for my situation then I would close the thread to remark as resolve that it would be no points to continue to posts as I would not get any help.

no, you can't, it is impossible, i told you that via PM, via the other post, and I will say it here now.

CAPTCHA is designed as a way to prove a human is typing at a computer, and not any sort of automated machine. You are trying to make an automated machine make CAPTCHA think a human is there.

Is CAPTCHA 100% fool proof, absolutely not. Are you going to be able to write a piece of code that will bypass CAPTCHA by interpreting the image and figuring out the letters and numbers, absolutely not.

[Stoobert]

If its your own site, why do you need to bypass it? Surely you can just register a few using the captcha to check its working, then for testing purposes just comment out the captcha code so its not needed. Or am I missing the point?

[kleinma]

if it was for your own site you could just make a webservice to do direct registers of accounts, and no web automation would be needed at all, if its your own site, and you have full control over the site files, then there are a few ways to do it without needing to fill any web forms.

My guess is he plans to use this on other sites as well, or he is trying to make a browser app that is JUST for viewing his site?

[Mark107]

Thanks for the help anyway, resolved!
