Press Release Summary = Euroholidayslets.com have improved all online forms of their
website, using the CAPTCHA technique, in a clampdown on SPAM to protect their
Customers.

Press Release Body = Euroholidayslets.com, a European vacation rental and holiday
home advertising service, have improved all online forms of their website in a
clampdown on SPAM, to protect their Customers.

Due to the irritation of \"spammers\", a SPAM protection system has been introduced
using the CAPTCHA technique (Completely Automated Public Turing Test to Tell
Computers and Humans Apart), pioneered by School of Computer Science at Carnegie
Mellon in Pittsburgh USA, to prevent automated form submissions.

The system has been introduced to overcome the problem of software robots used by
spammers, that search sites and automatically complete online forms and certain
account registrations, to send unwanted emails to the inboxes of registered
Customers.

The site launched earlier this year, is owned and operated by Holiday Letting
Services Ltd. \"The protection system will filter SPAM emails being generated by
software robots through our website forms, and only allow forms completed by genuine
site users to be submitted to our Customers\" explains Director Michael Garmston.
\"We would like to express our sincere apologies to anybody that has received SPAM
email via our website. The new website improvement is expected to prevent any
future nuisance emails from being sent to any of our Customers.\"

Each time a user completes one of the forms on their website, before the system will
allow the user to submit, they will need to type the letters of a distorted image
that appears on the screen into a separate field. When the form is submitted the
correct word is compared against the user input. If the comparison is unsuccessful
the form submission will be terminated.
