Harvesting Bots - Send Them Packing
I have now put it on my new forum (only six weeks old so no great amount of members emails to harvest yet!) - and the piece of code you use is universal:-
" <a href="http://english-196178920117.spampoison.com"><img src="http://pics5.inxhost.com/images/sticker.gif" border="0" width="80" height="15"/></a> "
Just copy and paste that at the bottom of your forum or blog or other site where you will find a logo appears in red-black saying Spam Poison.
What this does is given on Spam Poison's website and I quote:-
"These links will redirect email harvesting bots to trap sites that will feed it with an almost infinite loop of dynamically generated fake email addresses, mostly on known spammer owned domains! This will render their harvested lists practically useless and of no commercial value. "
Enjoy!
