Stop the Spam-bots!

(Yes, you are actually in the right place - Happy Snax is a client that uses this Spam-bot stopper)

This page generates some Javascript code that you can cut and paste into your HTML so that all those annoying spam-bots won't be able to harvest your e-mail address from your webpage.

Spam-bots are automated to detect e-mail addresses on web pages and collect them all for someone who then sells the addresses by the millions (usually advertising their product using spam also!).

The code generated is Javascript that writes your e-mail address to the browser but doesn't include your address in the actual HTML code.

The Javascript involved isn't terribly difficult so if you're technically minded, have a look at the page source and you'll be able to see how I've done it.

This produces essentially the same result for free as other services that people charge money for.

It's already in use on this page - in the e-mail link to the webmaster below.

Or, if you want to e-mail me, here's another example: .  Please let me know of any feedback, suggestions or problems.

Spam Prevention Software
While spam-bot certainly helps, it's inevitable that you'll still end up with some spam from other sources (eg mailing lists, registration forms etc) and this tends to multiply over time.  If you're sick of offensive junk e-mail and are looking for some really good spam software, have a look at Mailwasher Pro as this is what we use.

It only costs about USD30 and it works FANTASTICALLY well!  It looks at the origin of the e-mail to see if it matches known spam servers (as per the SpamCop list), as well as the message content and automatically identifies about 99% of spam.

It really is a top product - see for yourself.
