CAPTCHA SNIPER definition files - 32 ADDITIONAL CAPTCHAS...mostly for GSA

i have already closed all programs using port 80. CS was working before i added the new captcha

I'm getting this problem too. Worked fine with default CS...now that I overwrote all the files I get a port 80 conflict.

edit: i had two copies of CS running.

Note, these are mostly guestbook captchas. Which are really bad for link building.

Well that would explain the situation. CS needs port 80 in order to function properly, so if by any case you had 2 copies installed and another one was still running, that would have been the one using port 80 and therefor the second copy wouldn't have the ability to start properly.
 
Back to the OP -- if I copy the files over into my Program Files folder...there are a few directories that already exists (ie: type19) should I overwrite or skip these? Same for configs folder. I'm talking about the zip file that contains the 32 extra captcha files...shouldn't they be only new directories that I'm copying over??

Yes, you can merge and overwrite, nothing will happen besides the fact that it will add the new captchas
 
Hey,

Do I just overwrite the old files from where I found them during the backup step?? Wont I lose the other captcha types (type 1, type 2, etc) ?

NOTE: I think you answered above I just don't want to screw up. Basically, take the new files from "32 additional captchas" file and overright them into
the same directory that we found them for the backup step?

ie = the entire user captcha image folders labeled as typeuxx located in \Program Files\Captcha Sniper\captchas (the "typeuxx" folder doesn't exist for me, just copied the whole captcha folder.)

Thanks ahead of time,
AK

You would just have to copy all folders and the .mdb file in the captcha sniper folder then confirm for merge and overwrite, nothing will happen :)

Np, glad you guys like it :)
 
I understand adding the folders back in that we backed up, after adding the new ones from you...but I don't understand the mdb file, if we replace the current one with the one in your new zip file....why do we add our backup mdb file back to our cs folder to overwrite that? I must be misunderstanding something
 
I've been messing around in captcha destruction kit for about 2.5hrs with this one
filtering out the background noise is simple
either a 47% white threshold
or a 35% threshold does the trick
adding a 10-20% contrast helps some with removing the speckling around the text
but i'm still stuck with a less than 20% success rate, due to the damn stencil font they use
any advice on solving this?

Mike has cleaned them up and the most relevant are already included in the latest version

It is a simple overwrite. I but this is irrelevant now because the latest version has these captcha types so you would only need to upgrade cs.

This one is a bit more tricky since the characters also rotate. Even though the latest cdk has a derogation feature, you it wouldn't work since they rotate randomly. My guess is that it would require bit of special algo

Does anyone know if we still need these with the new version of Captcha Sniper X?

Thanks for the share man. This is a great share.

Would like to know this too. Seems like we do as there's a few lesser in X but how to add these in please? Thanks.

+1

i'd like to know too

+10

i would like to know as well :)

Anyone know ?

No, I this isn't needed anymore because Mike implemented them in the latest update, I so you would only have to upgrade CS

How can I get a better success rate with expressionengine captcha? Right now I have 52% but when looking in destruction kit there I can't find them.

Thanks
 
Hey guys,

As you all know Mikey launched our latest update of Captcha Sniper yesterday, with our learning mode module called Captcha Destruction Kit.

From now on, our customers have the ability to share the database and I have started this thread in order to show you how you can do this, and as an addition, I am sharing a db with 32 addtional captchas which are mostly built to be compatible with GSA search engine ranker.

You can use this db to get an ideea on how to use the Captcha Destruction Kit and check what filters have been applyed for what captcha types and should aid you along the way.

Please read carefully and follow these exact steps if you wish to share the db and take advantage of other db's

First make a backup of the following before you do anything else!

1. captchasniper.mdb located in \Program Files\Captcha Sniper

2. the entire user captcha image folders labeled as typeuxx located in \Program Files\Captcha Sniper\captchas

3. your user tesseract training files labeled as numbers and located in \Program Files\Captcha Sniper\Tesseract\tessdata\configs

You must make a backup of these otherwise you will loose all your work up to that point if you simply overwrite!

You can also extract the package first and have a look at the directory tree and the files included so you can have a basic ideea which files you need to back up and where to locate them.

Now, download the pack from the link below and you will see exactly in which folder located in \Program Files\Captcha Sniper you will need to paste the files included in the package as I have set the exact dir tree in the pack.

Enjoy :)

I purchased it a few weeks ago. Does this mean that the above 32 are already included in the lastest version or are these additions?

Does CS run in 64bit mode?

When using Decapther kit i keep getting runtime errors and crashes all over the place more often than not when trying to create my own answers. Why is that? Always crashing when i use that kit.
