^^^ in wrong site
Its usually to prove you are a real person and not a web crawler. You will be asked to enter a word or figures shown in the pic or click which pictures have a certain thing in...eg a cat.
I think it's a device where you have to type in distorted letters and numbers to prove you are a real person and not a robot.

right ok - thought that - it showed about 15 pictures - house, bananas, front of house blah and asked me to match them - there was no match. Jeez what don't they make things easier - it wasn't as if I was looking to buy a bloody diamond

Jacky it did say "I am not a Robot" - that when I clicked on it brought all the pictures up. I've left it am too tired tonight.
I doubt it was an exact match or a bot might be able to do the task. It'd be something with two different bridges or houses or people or something I'd guess.
Should've ticked the box that said, "I am a Bot". Might have got a simpler question.
it notmally askes you to say for example how many of these pictures contains a fruit, reCAPTCHA, is a vairiation onm CAPTCHA which is Completely Automated Turing test to tell Computers and Humans Apart. Catchy huh? Anyway it's to stop bulk application by other computers.
