The Internet has established firm deep roots in our day to day life. It has brought many revolutionary changes in the way we do things. One important consequence has been the way it has replaced human to human contact. This has also presented us with a new issue which is the requirement for differentiating between real humans and automated programs on the Internet. Such automated programs are usually written with a malicious intent. CAPTCHAs play an important role in solving this problem by presenting users with tests which only humans can solve. This chapter looks into the need, the history, and the different kinds of CAPTCHAs that researchers have come up with to deal with the security implications of automated bots pretending to be humans. Various schemes are compared and contrasted with each other, the impact of CAPTCHAs on Internet users is discussed, and to conclude, the various possible attacks are discussed. The author hopes that the chapter will not only introduce this interesting field to the reader in its entirety, but also simulate thought on new schemes.

While the Internet is already a valuable form of business that has already changed the way the world is doing business, it is about to change again. Telecommunications, the Internet, and mobile computing are merging their technologies to form a new business called mobile commerce or the wireless Internet. This is being driven by consumer demand for wireless devices and the desire to be connected to information and data available through the Internet. There are many new opportunities that have only begun to be explored, and for many this will become a large revenue source for those who capitalize upon this new form of technology. However, like other capital ventures, these new opportunities have their drawbacks, which may limit growth of the mobile commerce market if not dealt with. Mobile e-commerce technology is changing our world of business just as the Internet alone has changed business today.

It focuses on the impact of the Internet on key psychological factors that are involved in collective action. The structure is as follows. First, the article considers the theoretical backdrop to its themes, focusing first on the classic literatures on crowds and on mediated communication, followed by more contemporary perspectives – identifying the underlying consistencies in the theoretical themes these literatures address. It identifies some key psychological factors that drive collective action. Then the article considers how the Internet changes the nature of collective action and the context in which it takes place. Subsequently, it elaborates how these changes might affect the key factors previously identified. Finally, the article takes a step back from all this and returns to the question of whether this amounts to a revolution in the way collective actions take place.

Since its early days, the Internet has been used by the music industry as a powerful marketing tool to promote artists and their products. Nevertheless, technology developments of the past ten years, and especially the ever-growing phenomenon of file sharing, have created the general impression that the Internet is responsible for a crisis within the industry, on the grounds that music piracy has become more serious than it has ever been. The purpose of this paper is to present the impact of new technologies and the Internet on the three main actors of the music industry: consumers, artists and record companies. It is claimed that the Internet has changed the way music is valued, and also, that it may have a direct effect on the quality of the music produced, as perceived by both artists and consumers alike.
