I have attached the captcha that I cannot decode.

The whole point of a captcha is to evade automated reading. That's why letters are very close together and letters are heavily rotated off a consistent baseline. OCR is designed for normal text input so you need to do clever preprocessing here first.

It says YNXAJB. 

Or do you mean your computer program can't decode it? In that case, it sounds like it is working as intended.
