That isn't what I see when I click on the link (and then click through
the iframe to see the captcha). I see a photograph with some digits in
it, and a string of digits in a distorted font. So there are two strings
of digits as the OP says, and no instrctions on how to use them. The
instructions just say: "Please solve the challenge below, and click the
I'm a Human button to get a confirmation code". But they don't actually
say how to solve the challenge!
