I did a quick search on this. It probably has something to do with the browser thinking the site doesn't have a proper certificate or something like that. The browser requires you to approve an exception to an improper certificate but is failing to give you the prompt to do so. The site might have worked in Internet Explorer but failed in Firefox or Chrome.
I don't know if it makes any difference to "know" the reason but that's likely pretty close to the reason.

In the end, I had to have Lawrence sign me up. It just wouldn't let me sign up on my own.
I still have no explanation as to why it would always jump right to the "invalid captcha" page, without first offering me a place to type in a captcha.
Oh well, back to discussing fruit!!

Tell me though, when you go to the subscribe page:
http://lists.ibiblio.org/mailman/listinfo/nafex
Do you actually see a Captcha area? I don't. Once I learned what the
word meant, I went right back and looked all over for it. That's when I
went to the page with Explorer, because I thought there was some weird
glitch that made Firefox not display it. It still wasn't there.

Sounds like you'd get that error message if you enter the captcha__________________
prompt incorrectly. Sometimes they can be difficult to read. They are
case sensitive. However, usually if you enter it wrong, it gives you
another chance with a new prompt. If it's not doing that, or if you're
entering it correctly, it sounds like an error in the captcha code that
the webmaster would need to address. That's my guess. Might not be right.

Today, I looked up the word "captcha". I wasn't familiar with the word
but now I know what it means:
http://dictionary.reference.com/browse/captcha?s=t
It seems that the system doesn't believe that I'm a real person. I'm
not sure why.
I just now tried signing up using Explorer as a browser instead of my
usual Firefox browser. Same result.
Lawrence, (or anyone else), what triggers that "invalid captcha" result?
Lawrence, I'll send you the email address I'm trying to use so maybe
you can fix things for me.

I just tried again and I forgot about this happening the first time. I
filled out the form, clicked the subscribe button and this message
came up:

Invalid captcha
I kind of forgot about that because I didn't know what it means and
also, I thought I was actually signed up because I could later sign in
with the address and password I had just used.
So what the heck does "Invalid captcha" mean?

with
AOL addresses.
Several days ago, I decided to go ahead and get another G mail address
which I intend to use just for this group. Twice I have signed up the
new address, but I have been getting no messages. Recently, I signed
this AOL address again, and right away, I'm getting Nafex messages on
this one.
I can keep working on it, but if anyone has a reason that my new G
address isn't working here, let me know.
