<p class=MsoNormal><font size=2 face=Arial><span style='font-size:10.0pt;
font-family:Arial'>I was attempting to complete a security challenge on PayPal several
minutes ago. There is an audio alternative which I was using because Captcha Be
Gone service from Q-Continuum could not find the visual captcha. Anyway, I was surprised
to hear what I think is one of the Dectalk voices speak the letters/numbers! The
characters were choppy so the voice was difficult to understand and my attempt to
solve was not successful. I think the Dectalk voice used is Ursula. I could be wrong
about the voice being from Dectalk but I'm 99 percent certain. Apparently PayPal
uses a combination of Dectalk and ESpeak voices in their audio captchas.<o:p></o:p></span></font></p>
