CAPTCHAs and P0rn

At last some proof that CAPTCHAs are being solved using p0rn. The Panda labs blog speaks about an application, which when installed on the system, offers p0rn in exchange for solving CAPTCHAs. They detect the client side application as Trj/RompeCaptchas.A.

I wonder how the application gets to know if the answer to the CAPTCHA is right or wrong. A desperate individual might enter wrong answers to view the images quickly.
