Anti-Spam Tools
by Ivy on August 28, 2006

The first one is SpamFreeze, which will give you a URL to display instead of your e-mail.
"When a user clicks on the link to your email, they will need to identify a word jumbled within an image to verify they are not actually a spider collecting email addresses. After doing so, they will be provided with your email address."
The second spammer diverting tool is the handy TinyMailTo:
"You can use a tinymailto URL to put it in public places, like web pages, forum/e-mail signatures, etc. If someone wants to get your e-mail address, the person must pass a CAPTCHA test in order to view and use your e-mail address."
Yes! This is officially the end of writing your e-mail inserting _REMOVE_, _SPAMMER_GO_AWAY_ and other words, or writing it with spaces. Glad aren't you?

Oh yes...those wonderful "remove ... to reply". I once came across one which really made me laugh: "Remove CLOTHES to reply" ;-))

Thanks for your comment FlatLizard. Yes, we do get kinky and funny sometimes when dealing with spammers, don't we? You know what they say, if you can't beat them...
