Captcha with a long s!

I wonder how many people would answer this one correctly!

(For the life of me I couldn't make out the second word, so we'll never know if the captcha was really expecting a long s for the first one.)

And, they recognise it if you input "s" for "ſ".

I come across the long s too in captchas, and it takes the input correctly if you put in an "s."
