I read somewhere that selecting a bit of text before clicking the "I'm not a robot" checkbox helps to avoid the Recaptcha popup. I've started doing this and think I've been seeing them far less often, but of course it's possible I'm fooling myself. And I guess it will only be a matter of time before robots will start doing this too, so please don't tell anyone ;-)

That makes sense. They are profiling your responses to the captcha, not just checking for the correct answer. They always seem to make me "play" their stupid "find the cars" game a lot longer when I quickly choose them. 20 minutes straight one time. Yeah I felt violated. It was on my stupid state unemployment benefits application page. Talk about being kicked while you're down. Not only do I have to convince the state I'm a citizen and eligible, I have to convince google I'm not a robot first.
