That's called captcha....
The letters are case-sensitive so Capital and small letters are sometimes used....
There is also an audio option on some so when you clik the speaker you hear what is needed to be typed.

Actually, usually not. But sometimes, yes they are case sensitive. Usually all CAPS are accepted.
-
Some of the letters and numbers can be hard to read clearly but most sites have a button to issue a new code. Sometimes the new code is easier to read.
Some sites scramble the letters and numbers a little too much.
-
Most captcha programs have an audible version. Listen to that and type in what it says.

but guys I even get the most simple ones wrong(though i typed it correctly) ... Its exactly the same but the websites says im wrong ><

What web browser are you using? If you are using Firefox, try getting this addon.
https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/966/
It's an addon called "Tamper Data". When you're about to submit the information for registering, click Tools > Tamper Data > Start Tamper. Then click the submit button. It will bring up a message. You may have (quite) a bit to look through, but eventually you should find the captcha code. If that ISN'T what you entered, something is interfering with your browser somehow.

Looks like you correctly typed in the code. After typing it in, do you click on LogIn button?
Maybe try something else...
