This is the second of two messages.
I don't know about Facebook Mobile, but, on the main Facebook page, it
is possible to avoid getting any future CAPTCHA requests. there is a
part of the form to be filled, which is optional, that says, "tired of
CAPTCHA's? Please fill out the following: Mobile phone number", or words
to that effect, along with an explanation of what will happen then.
Rather like the Google or two-step verification method, the number you
have just submitted will be sent an SMS text consisting of a group of
numbers, which you are then asked to input into the edit field on the
Facebook page, and submit. All of this happens in a matter of seconds.
Now if you get the numbers wrong, you can correct it before
resubmitting, and in fact there is ample time within which the string of
numbers in the code remains valid.
Henceforth, you will never again be asked to fill in a CAPTCHA request
by Facebook, nor will you be sent an SMS every time a CAPTCHA would have
been requested.
I think that that should also be somewhere on the Facebook mobile page.

Subject: [vip_students] facebook security check
Hello All,
I'm using JAWS 13, IE 11, and Win 7. I've been accessing Facebook via
the mobile site (http://m.facebook.com/) and everything has been going
fine. But just now I hit a snag. FB threw up a Security Check. It's
another one of those captchas. I click on the Audio version, but
nothing happens. Help!
I recently changed all my media file associations to VLC because WMP
wouldn't play nice with PayPal's captcha .wav file. Maybe that has
something to do with it. If so, what do I do about it? Change them
all back? How? Like I said before, help!
John
