Question Creating security number

Has anyone seen those security characters that you have to manually type into a textbox when you sumbit a form or something on some site? I want to create something like that. Anyone has any information on how to create something similar to that? Those characters are randomnly generated as I understand it. Any help is appreciated.

Depends on the programming language you are using.

In PHP for example, you can use the Image Functions to create an image containing random text.
here is a starting tutorial on how to do it:
