I failed a test on elementary electricity!

Does anyone else here use the site www.elektrotanya.com? I've
used it from time to time over the past several years to get a
schematic or service manual. The site allows guest downloading of
two documents per day but I registered anyway. But when I tried
to log in last night, it kept rejecting my login details, so I
tried to do a new registration. The registration process involved
answering five elementary multiple-choice questions, and I
failed!

The only question where there was any possibility of my getting
it wrong was the last one. It asked whether there's any chance of
getting an electric shock after an appliance is disconnected from
AC power (I *think* it said something about working inside the
appliance). The choices - paraphrased because I don't remember
the exact wording - were
1. No, because it's disconnected from AC power
2. (Don't remember this one but I'm sure it's not the correct
answer)
3. Yes, it may happen. (exact wording or very close to it)

With charged high-voltage capacitors in mind, I chose No.3. And I
failed! Both amused and annoyed, I tried to take the test again,
but I was told to come back after a few days!

or just download your two docs per day and don't make a login. the login
process is screwy and makes little to no sense. It's unlikely I could
ever my login a second time, so just reregister.
