Hey Spammer, how we lookin?

Here is a link to a Perl script I'm hosting:

http://www.moderncs.net/contact.duh/userinfo.now

Click it and you will notice it generates random e-mail addresses and random links to MORE random e-mail addresses. When the spammers crawl webpages like this one, they get fake e-mail addresses mixed into their databases. Furthermore, when their spider (web crawling) programs follow the links, what do they get? MORE FAKE E-MAIL ADDRESSES! This can go on forever if their spiders don't figure it out.

If you have a webpage or blog, you should LINK to this page:

http://www.moderncs.net/contact.duh/userinfo.now

The spammers will NOT like you, but the rest of us will!
