Do you mean that you have a problem with the CAPTCHA to confirm that you are a human?

I agree that the CAPTCHAs used for sync aren't easily to comprehend and the sound version is even more difficult.
I usually click as often as necessary to reload a new CAPCHA if I can't decipher the letters until I see one that doesn't look too hard.

Thanks very much. Tried it again (about 7th or 10th attempt), but it worked. Now synced and started on process to maybe get messed up FF cache and Pogo straightened out.
