** Description changed:

  This really may be two bug, but the latter one is a lot more irritating:
  
  1. For some reason Software Center keeps asking me to create a Software
  Center account on startup and also whenever I try to turn on
  recommendations. This would be OK, unless I hadn't created an account
  for that purpose months ago. What did happen to it?
  
  2. Well whatever, then I shall register again. Unless there's a CAPTCHA
  challange which I can't solve. 0/40 success rate (est.). Guys, please.
  I'm a human being. 0/40 means that this CAPTCHA is nearly unsolvable. If
- I'm wrong, the go on, prove me wrong.
+ I'm wrong, then go on, prove me wrong.
  
  Also it looks like I'm not alone with my opinion:
