For those that wish to know what the little validation graphic that appears
with a username and password that is designed to stop automated site
cracking methods... it is called a Captcha
(http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Captcha).

Hi All:

Does anyone know the name of the little graphic that is used, in addition,
to validate a person's user name and password, on many sites? 

The name has slipped my mind...

TIA
Jim
