Those distorted security letter things on emails

[PlasticBandit]

Can I seriously be the only person who cannot read them and always types them back wrongly? I can do the numbers, but the letters beat me every time

I've seen some that seem designed to make it next to impossible to read them correctly. I do understand the point of them but really...

I always think it's stupid to put O/0 in them - it's almost always impossible to tell which one it's meant to be...

Thank you - glad it's not just me.

I also find it very difficult to recognise some of the letters/numbers - usually fail and feel inadequate!

No need to feel inadequate - I hate most of them with a passion, as some seem to reject what I type time and again.

A tiny number are case insensitive and some have a note to show certain letters are not used.
