    Do you usually get this captcha thing when logging in to HP?

    Why does it appear sometimes and others it is not there?

      Thanks JimTxMiller. Good for you that you have never experienced the captcha issue. For me I usually get it from time to time. Let us hear from the others too.

    I have usually encountered this while logging into HubPages. Do we look like robots to them?? Ha..

    I have never gotten a captcha when logging into hubpages.

    But I do have a theory of why you might be getting them. Do you sign in from different IP addresses ?
    Some sites use extra security measures if you login from different IP addresses, I always log in from the same ip which could explain my not getting a captcha popup.

    PS: This is just a theory smile

      ketage, thanks for your input. Glad you do not get it. It is annoying. Recently, I have been logging in from same IP and have been seeing it. Luckily, it is not a day to day thing.

      I agree with him. Even though I have not come across once, I think it is an extra security measure. It may also occur if you put in your username or password incorrectly more than 2wice, consecutively.

    I've never got it either. I have my HP profile saved as one of my favorites. Once I click on it then I sign in.

    No, never except while writing a new Hub. On signing in never encountered the captcha code.

    Just once, for sign in, and never again.
    Even your screen shot is "sign in" one.

    No, I have never got a captcha (so far!) What does happen is that sometimes my user name appears already up and I just have to add my password, and sometimes I have to enter everything. I think you ought to report this, if you are not changing your IP address constantly, then it could be a glitch. Wish you luck!

      Thanks joanveronica, it could be a glitch cause I do not not see why they think am  a robot. Seams lots of people do not get this nuisance.
