Spam emailers harvesting email addresses from my website

G

Guest

Hi,
I have a numbere of contact addresses on my website - they must be being
harvested somehow as my mailboxes just fill up with loads of those awful
emails selling almost everything imaginable. Is there anything I can do to
stop the email addresses from being harvested?
regards,
JacquieCC

Try the Jimco spam spoiler
See http://www.jimcosoftware.com/addins.aspx

PS
But that may be like closing the barn door after the cows have been stolen
- your addresses are probably well "indexed" and being circulated among the spammers

Unless your mail provider has a good spam blocker, Sometimes yes

Try http://www.jimcosoftware.com/addins.aspx and scroll down to Spam
Spoiler. I haven't used this myself but it came highly recommended
from this forum about a year ago. It works as an add in to Frontpage
and uses Javascript to build the e mail into a variable so that bots
don't see it/
