In answer to your question, the above is an entire HTML mailto: link encoded
as HTML Ampersand codes which is readable by all browsers. The mailto: part
is itself encoded. This will foil the spam bot.

mailto:thomasm2@xxxxxxxxxx  is what is encoded by the above text.

Typing ALT+0109 gives us the letter 'm'. Typing ALT+058 gives us the ':'
etc., which are standard ASCII codes

Subject: [FreeDNS] Sorry


After I forwarded the message I got one back saying
it containded a virus. I deleted it and ran a scan and
everything came out clean, so sorry again.
    A bot or something must have found my email
adress on my site. Does any one maybe have an
idea on how I can post my email adress (on my site)
without this happening?

Leon
