hi,

I have faced login problem when I tried to login to the below forum.

http://www.investalks.com/forum/logging.php?action=login

Sorry it is a mandarin webpage. Everytime when i key in the verification code, it will always show X(incorrect). But I found one interesting thing is when I turn firefox to "Private Browsing Mode", the verification code will show the correct and i can login normally. But it is not convenience for me to using private browsing as I need to key in password everytime.

I have captured the screen shot as below
