lycos seem to have tightened up the use of this service.  They now present
you with an image of a two or three digit (I forget exactly which) number
that has been dynamically generated and you have to read and manually enter
this into a form element on the next page.  I was thinking about trying to
write a perl script to read the image and try and recognise the characters,
but I haven't had time yet :-(

will.
