+1  Q: 

Is there a captcha solver / decoder / autofiller for Ruby?

I want to write a "client" for megaupload.com in Ruby and I wanted to know if there was a captcha solver / decoder / autofiller for Ruby. Thanks

+2  A: 

Well, unless the CAPTCHA is really lame - not. The idea behind a CAPTCHA is to ensure that a human is running the show.

A CAPTCHA or Captcha (pronounced /ˈkæptʃə/) is a type of challenge-response test used in computing to ensure that the response is not generated by a computer.

If you really need a client for Megaupload, it at least can't do everything automatically. Every download request will require that a user initiates it, so that you can show the captcha to the user and have him or her fill it in.
