The 'type in a code' mechanism is called a CAPTHCA. See:

  http://www.captcha.net/
  http://www2.parc.com/istl/projects/captcha/

The typical mechanism for defeating a CAPTCHA is to screen scrape
the image, and reuse it on a pornography website. Essentially the
bad guys trick humans into doing the work for them.

Cheers,
