Does this software work if you have screen curtain enabled? I always have my 
screen curtain on, because i don't want people peering at my screen when I'm 
out in public and all. I'm just wondering if this is something I'll have to 
turn off every time I go to a page that could potentially have a CAPTCHA.

DFTBA!
