How can I protect my website from Email extractor programm´s, like Advanced Email extractor ?

Question

With this programm they take all the Email´s from your web-site. So what can I do to protect my site ?

Answer 1

Are you talking about an "email us" type of link on your site? If so, you can try using this script:



Note: There are not supposed to be spaces in the "document write" line of the code. I had to add spaces here so you could see the whole code (yahoo seems to cut long continuous lines).

When you mouseover the "Email Us!" link, you will see a valid "mailto:" hyperlink. I've used this method on a couple sites.

Answer 2

Create address 'on the fly' using scripot (as suggested above) or show the addess only as an 'Image' (which requires users to type it in).
