How to prevent automated software from retrieving your email address from your site
How can you prevent automated software from retrieving your email address from your site? For example, on my site in my contact section I have a link like this [email protected] and people can click it to send me an email.
Is there anyway to prevent the spam softwares that retrieve email addresses from picking it up? Whats a good solution out there? |
Hit me up on ICQ I have a few ways of doing this 4433144

How do internet surfers usually feel about using a form? I don't know if anyone would know that, but I thought I would ask :) Also, Fletch, can any of the softwares out there still get your email from a form? And where is a good place to get a nice email form? Hotscripts.com? |

software cant grab my email because its embedded in the admin php file. hmm im sure hotscripts might have something, email scripts are fairly simple in regards to the actual script. |
Do as FletchXXX says or use an encoder:
