1. A system for distinguishing between a human and non-human user, comprising:
- a human interactive proof (HIP) challenge component that displays a HIP challenge to a user,a HIP determination component that determines if the user is a human or non-human based upon a response to the challenge provided by the user, wherein the HIP determination component employs a partial credit algorithm in making the determination, wherein the partial credit algorithm assigns the user partial credit for getting a portion of the challenge correct.

Abstract
A system and method that facilitates and effectuates distinguishing a human from a non-human user. A human interactive proof (HIP) employs a partial credit algorithm in order to allow a user to make one or more mistakes during consecutive HIP challenges and still be identified as a human. The algorithm assigns a user partial credit based upon getting part of the challenge incorrect. The partial credit is tracked and if during one or more consecutive subsequent challenges the same user gets a portion of the challenge incorrect again, they can still be identified as human.
