See CAPTCHA.net [captcha.net] or search Google for CAPTCHA for info on those kinds of image tests, designed to be too hard a problem for computer science to currently solve, but easy enough for a child to pass.
The same kinds of techniques are used all over the place, from creating a new Yahoo account, to passing a "white-list" anti-spam filter, to doing a WHOIS at NSI, GoDaddy, OpenSRS or other big registrars who don't want their WHOIS database harvested by robots.

I have heard that one way of breaking those image-based security locks, especially if they have long (or non-existant timeouts) is to capture the image and, in real time, put it up on a porn site and let some human enter the response. That response can then be fed back into the original web form.
