Hi I'm being plagued by e-mail harvesters who are getting my e-mail addresses from my website through my coding. Although I use mailwasher, I want to stop the spammers at source. Is there a wrap around html code that I can use to stop web robots from harvesting the e-mail addresses that I use? Many thanks. Chris http://www.borntoloaf.co.uk |

Why not have your email address as a descriptive button, then link to it? This is the type of code on my site. Anyone with a pinch of common sense can see that the AT needs changing to @ and web bots are unable to read your email address to harvest it into their spam programs! |

But your email address still appears in the status bar, so its still available to anyone. He who found technology too late to be a whiz-kid! |

It is still visible to the HUMAN eye but not the spambots! The point of this is to make it unreadable to the email harvesting software. |

Thanks chaps, anything to put an end to countless cheap viagra and rude e-mails. I tried right clicking to view the source on your contact us page Paul, is it right click protected? Not that I'd borrow on a permanent basis your coding.... CHRIS http://www.borntoloaf.co.uk |
