One way that spammers gather email addresses is by using email collector programs - "spambots".
These robots scan the Web and grab all the email addresses out of every site they visit. If you
use links on your site, if you post your own or other people's email addresses (for example, on
your Testimonials, Feedback pages, etc.), you (and your customers) have a great chance to be
spammed and spammed again. Em@ilEncoder allows to keep email addresses on your site out of the
hands of spammers. Encoded email does not looks like an email address for spammer's tools, and
they can't extract it from your pages. Encoded tags still working correctly, and visitors can
send you emails by clicking on the link. (VJ)

ASS Maker (Anti-Spam Script Maker)
Are you tired of Spam? Do you own a Home Page with your or your company E-mail address listed
anywhere in it? Then ASS Maker can help you. ASS Maker writes for you a Java Script that you can
Copy and Paste into your Home Page in the place of the 'mailto:' tags. ASS Maker disguises the
'mailto:' tags and your address in several parameters of a Java Script E-mail link. When a
visitor of your Home Page clicks that link, the script launches the visitor default E-mail
program with your original address in the 'To:' field, but the spammers bots and spiders can't
see it!

Fake E-Mail Creator
It seems like every day we get annoying e-mails offering porn, get rich quick schemes, or
illegal solicitations. We didn't ask for this junk. Unethical people extracted your e-mail
address from the Internet by using programs known as "spambots." Such applications automatically
surf web page after web page harvesting as many e-mail addresses as they can find. The people
collecting e-mail addresses en masse don't care who the addresses belong to. They just want to
make money any way they can. If their porn ads end up in the e-mail box of a 10-year-old or a
nun or a grandfather, they don't care. As long as they can make sales, they don't worry about
what eyes fall upon their disgusting drivel. It's time to fight back! With Fake E-Mail Creator,
you can randomly generate thousands of bogus names and e-mail addresses on an HTML page.
Spambots will not be able to tell them from real e-mail addresses. The more such poison
addresses are posted on the Internet, the more difficult it will be for spammers to harvest
useful e-mail lists. The value of spambots will decline.
