Google Tagline: Protect your website from spam and abuse while letting real people pass through with ease.
Opinion: The realm is often a nasty place to conduct business. We at G2AG are committed to both guarding your
personal information and protecting our website against malicious and overt attack regardless of source. reCAPTCHA
is one tool in an arsenal that provides a challenging impediment, an additional entanglement against malevolent bots.

Known Issues with reCAPTCHA:
- JAVA out-of-date warning. Reported during trials on 2015-10-26. There are two resolutions:
- Ignore the warning; click to dismiss all alerts – otherwise it will block forward progress in whatever action.
Google is aware of the issue but has not provided comment. We at G2AG believe this is still the best anti-bot
solution and trust that Google will provide a resolution if the issue belongs to them.
- Stop current activity. Go to Java.com, install the latest Java engine, and uninstall older obsolete engines.
There is no harm in upgrading basic well-documented well-engineered and respected tools for web. When this
procedure is complete, please come back to G2AG and restart your process.
- BOT expires before Registration form completion. Presently the only workaround is to be quicker at completing the form.
