Anyone really believes it works??? :))

We are back

2005-12-26T13:44:00.000+02:00

Sorry for the long silence, now we are back. Site was updated technicaly, soon we'll post new content. Thanks to all who was waiting

Reviewing internet

Interesting, what webmasters of these websites will say when we'll crack this CAPTCHA? We definately will, just to know what will they say :)

Then.
One more pretty CAPTCHA which can be cracked:
http://higginsforpresident.net/projects/tacs/demo/index.php
nice try, but I don't believe it this idea. Anyone wants to pay us for cracking it? :)

Time to time I see classic CATPCHA - Hotmail one, like here
http://www.standards-schmandards.com/exhibits/captcha/
It's good in sense of it's hard to break, realy hard (but we have several ideas). But it also very hard to read what written on it! Even I - 100% healthy young man, several years of everyday internet use, and I can't read some of pictures. What can I say more? tEABAG_3D will be mush more readlable (even now it is!)

One more CAPTCHA

This is a bank, isn't it? Maybe they will buy our solution if you will crack this one?

And here is one CAPTCHA we almost lmao on
http://www.hudzilla.org/phpbook/read.php/16_1_0
I'm impressed.
Anyone thinks that it's hard to break?? I'll do it for two beers :)

Long discussion about CAPTHA. Almost empty
http://www.7nights.com/asterisk/archive/2005/03/i-hate-captcha

One more long thread
http://underscorebleach.net/content/jotsheet/2005/01/mt_scode_captcha_accessibility_comment_spam

And one more
http://www.standards-schmandards.com/index.php?2005/01/01/11-captcha

Yeah, I know that our site does not looks too big and full of cracks. It's just a lack of time. I promice I'll update it asap.

3 last versions

2005-04-06T11:23:00.000+03:00

Well, the last is 0.8, I hope with 1.0 we will make some release. Hard optimization is needed for now.

http://ocr-research.org.ua/3dv7/index.php?code=1982
http://ocr-research.org.ua/3dv8/index.php?code=1982

More ideas = more versions. We have the ideas!

Version 0.5 beta

2005-03-29T14:08:00.000+03:00

Maybe it's time to make a changelog for versions?
Here you go - the last (and the best) version of tEABAG_3D CATPCHA for the moment
http://ocr-research.org.ua/3dv5/index.php?code=1982

I know - site needs to be seriously updated. No time for this - three new CAPTCHA breaking on the way!

Wow! 2 at one day!

2005-03-21T18:02:00.000+02:00

We made one more verion today. Look here - tEABAG_3D v0.4
http://ocr-research.org.ua/3dv4/index.php?code=1982
It seems to be much more readable!

New version released

2005-03-21T15:37:00.000+02:00

New version of a tEABAG_3D, our main project are available to view. It seems to be more human-readable, but not ideal :)
http://ocr-research.org.ua/3dv3/index.php?code=1982

It seems like idea with lines has no future.
We will continue work on polygonal version to develop a CAPTCHA which is realy hard to break :)

A huge amount of links

2005-03-17T16:46:00.000+02:00

We found many links to CAPTCHA-related resources. Going to post it here - just to know where to find all of it in future. So:

Some demos of tEABAG_3D - The Enhanced Anti-Bot Approvement Generator in 3D
available here

http://ocr-research.org.ua/3d/index.php?code=1982 - ver 0.1
http://ocr-research.org.ua/3dv2/index.php?code=1982 - ver 0.2

It seems like it's not too easy to read by human.... we are working on it... But it definately very hard to read by OCR.

The very first version of our brand new CAPTCHA created!

2005-03-14T14:29:00.000+02:00

We have (finally!) made the 0.1 version of a brand new 3d CAPTCHA system. It's made on PHP4+GD. It's time to generate a mighty name for it :)
We'll show you the sample after some minor changes.

Starting our blogging

2005-03-14T14:19:00.000+02:00

We decided to make a blog to trace some minds and links...
