What is CAPTCHA?
A captcha (an acronym for "
Completely
Automated
Public
Turing test to tell
Computers and
Humans
Apart") is a type of challenge-response test used in computing to determine whether or not the user is human. The term was coined in 2000 by Luis von Ahn, Manuel Blum, and Nicholas J. Hopper of Carnegie Mellon University, and John Langford of IBM. ...
Why use CAPTCHA?
E-Contact 2 includes CAPTCHA as an optional feature to ensure you stop receiving spam from your web site. CAPTCHA is useful because it's very difficult for software to read certain letters and numbers, where a human can read them more easily. With that said, automated software submissions and other SPAM techniques are stopped entirely or greatly reduced.
Can I have more than one E-Contact 2 box?
Yes. You can have an unlimited number of E-Contact 2 boxes on your web pages. You can even create separate boxes (ID's) for your customers. Every e-mail address you have can be used with E-Contact 2. Each box can also be dynamically changed and updated through the web-based control panel instantly.
