Thank you. But the more I think about this issue the more I am finding (in my memory) that I never see this type of entry validation on authenticated sites. That is, whenever I have to enter my user name and password I am not prompted to enter the "key" value. Only where the posting is anonymous (like making a comment to a blog or something like that) you have to enter the Captcha characters.
