D Correct answer
Explanation

CAPTCHAs specifically resist automated solving by design - they test humanity. Fuzzers like WebScarab send massive automated requests but cannot interpret visual/audio challenges meant for humans. Fuzzers can discover files (A), test lockout limits (B), and attempt passwords (C). CAPTCHA breaking requires human interaction or specialized AI, not simple request automation, making it unsuitable for fuzzing tools.
