Captchas are generally an automatic part of the system; it's not suspicious
of you in particular, just of everybody in general.

Did you actually type in the captcha into the box provided? If not, you need
to do that. If so, you must have read it wrong; the system should give you
another one. Keep trying until you get one that you can read correctly. One
of the problems with captchas is that, in the process of trying to make them
impossible for computers to read, they're often difficult for humans to read
also.
