Dear barrymah, just imagine kind of a virtual screw. Obviously, it's in the website/ booking system server settings somewhere. First, it was "screwed" just a little bit. Every 10th attempt to search or book had triggered Captcha. Unfortunately for FR, some "hostile screen-scrapers" still fared very well in spite of Capcha. Let's tighten the screw - said one of the well-advised. It was done. Captcha started to show up every 3rd attempt. What? BravoFly and others still offering FR bookings while at the same time the bookings via carrier's own booking system falling (perhaps dramatically, who knows)? Too bad! Let's loose the screw again! That's why Captcha comes every 10th attempt (or so) again.

Kind of fairy tale, you see
