I get this when I want to do a search on Ask Ubuntu.

Can you guess what this says? Neither can I. It's very, very difficult to read. In the last week, I tried 30+ times1. I failed all of them. I also tried the audio a few times, but that's perhaps even worse ...
I can sign in, and that "solves" it insofar that I can do a search, but I would just like to do a quick search without logging in on 100+ sites...

I realize the need for these sorts of system, and I also know that StackExchange doesn't develop this system, but can they be made more usable, somehow?
