    I only get the captcha on login when using Firefox.

    A few times a week I'll have JL panda running on my laptop at home and then submit the hit from my work computer.

    Anything is possible with Mturk suspensions, but using multiple machines or IPs isn't something I would worry about

    btw the reason that I asked if it was un_in is that he wrongly thought that he got banned for buying a second chromebook. I told him that Ganrohk had a similar setup and it worked well enough for him.

    Yeah I doubt it is the laptops. Ganrokh is likely related to when he got hacked and I have a few ideas of what un_in could have gotten banned for but they aren't related to the number of devices that he has.

    Don't forget that what people admit publicly vs. what they might actually be up to with their accounts could be two different things. I'm not big on speculating one way or another, but try not to let yourself get too scared.

    Yes, he cleans obsessively and howls if he thinks he's alone. Even if we are both home but he can't see or hear us he starts to howl and looks around for one of us. We found that it helps to have treats hidden around the house before we leave to give him something to "hunt" for and distract him if we both have to be gone.

    I would try any of the spays or wipes with aloe to help soothe the irritated skin or if it has a little hydrocorizone in it. My vet said that neosporin is safe to use on cats so if you think the skin may be getting infected that is okay to put a little on. I'm sure Petsmart will have a couple to choose from. Good luck with your kitty :)

    I'm off to the zoo soon, wish us luck that it doesn't rain.

    I am always wondering..how to you get suspended from mturk? I have heard of these 2 getting suspended but it sort of scares me (even though I have used 2 devices at one time)

    It isn't anything that a good worker would do most of the time.

    THat's exactly it! If I just call out his name he'll race over like 'oh thank god i thought you exploded and were gone forever'. That's a good trick, I'll try it out! Yeah, I've been using neosporin in the mean time but I want to get something better. Thanks for the suggestions, I'll run out in a bit!

    Have fun at the zoo :D

    What about that one guy who apparently hired people from another country to do hits for him? I read somewhere that there was a guy who got suspended for that, not sure if it was real or not.
