Abstract: A method and system for allowing access to computer functions such as websites that utilizes a user's ability to recognize sounds is described. The method presents a user a series of sounds. Some of the sounds presented in the series are labeled as validation sounds. The user is asked to provide an input every time he or she hears the validation sound. The user must identify the sound within a specified length of time. The system disclosed comprises a user interface, a sound database module, a generation module, and a sound database module. The generation module creates the validation test file and expected answer. The answer confirmation module checks the input from the requesting computer and provides access to the computer function if the computer input from the requesting computer meets the required parameters.

Abstract: Disclosed is a system and method for generating a universally usable, completely automated public turing test to tell a computer and a human apart (CAPTCHA). The universally usable CAPTCHA uses contextually related pictures and sounds to present concepts to a user. The pictures allow the CAPTCHA to be used by someone who could see, and the audio would allow the CAPTCHA to be used by someone who could not see. This combination of sound and images should make the CAPTCHA more universally usable for a larger population of users than previously known CAPTCHAs.
