[gui-talk] Is Webvisum Dead?

When I encounter Captcha I copy the link and then exit IE9 and go into 
Firefox just so I can get past the Captcha.

I can usually accomplish what I need to, then the next time I can use IE9 
since I shouldn't need to mess around with it again.

I only wish it were available for IE 9, I really don't want Firefox but as I
find myself alone a lot more lately may have to eventually load it and
figure out yet another browser that only does part of what I need.

Captcha is a horrible thing, I was on Google a few weeks ago and could not
understand one thing of the spoken one they presented and no way that I
could see to tell them about it.  No one to read it, here but my husband did
from his hospital room so we could change my password I had forgotten.

Hurray!  Webvisum is working again!  It's still alive and well, after all.
I just tried it myself, and it works like normal.
