Hello eBaey-empire,
Unfortunately, eBay can present a captcha or other confirmation page at any time for any account, so attempting to test eBay's response prior to a snipe actually being set may not provide results that would make a difference to a snipe. There is no way for our system to know ahead of time if eBay is going to make such a request when it logs in to place a bid, as eBay may present a captcha at one time that does not occur at a later time.
Please be aware that the Confirmation pages from snipe records are records - they are not actual eBay pages. They are snap shots of the last communication between Auction Sniper and eBay at the time Sniper attempts to place your bid, so a captcha page showing on a snipe's confirmation page was a request that eBay made when our system attempted to log in to that account. These are not actual eBay pages and are not intended to operate as such.
As we are unrelated to eBay, I am unable to say what changes they may have made or may be making, however, our engineers are continuing to look into this and I will update this thread again as soon as there is more information.
