But they are so widely used and so firmly entrenched in the psyches of web developers that they will probably never be completely replaced by a more blind-friendly alternative. At least ZCaptcha offers an reasonable alternative to Webvisum with Firefox that can be used with any browser.  Hopefully, they will be more successfull than Solona.
