http://www.lafdc.com/captcha/ is a site that sells commercial
CAPTCHA-breaking software.  It also shows success rates for different
types of CAPTCHAs.  While the ratings are merely representative of this
particular site's software and not a universal measure, it's interesting
to note that there's already a commercial market for anti-CAPTCHA tools.
