Q. What is Visual Confirmation and what is it for?

A. Visual Confirmation is a method of spam prevention, where a code is used within an image, and the user has to input this code to proceed with submitting a web based form. Visual Confirmation is extremely useful on websites to prevent spam via email and comment forms. Our Visual Confirmation system has eliminated all spam sent using the forms we have installed it on. We have researched methods commonly used to thwart such systems, and tailored it so that it is extremely difficult for "bots" used by spammers to read the text on the image. By ensuring all elements within the image are randomly produced, including various instances of image "noise", the image provided is always unique.
