Fight Back Against Spammers

WWW Robots (also called wanderers, spiders, crawlers, or bots) are programs
that crawl the Web continually retrieving linked pages. When a spammer's bot
visits your website, blog, forum, etc, all pages and sites linked to it will
be searched looking for email addresses.
Now you can fight back against their robots!

All you have to do is link to this page so that whenever a spammer's robot
scans your page, it will be sucked into this one. To link to this page, just
use this simple code:

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 pratically useless and of no commercial value.
