I am getting nailed with Spam on my website mails and in our blog website - now its offline too much spam. Is there anyway to stop this? If not, there really isn't any point in leaving it up and active. Any help will be greatly appreciated. Thanks for help, Keep up the good work.

It will turn your e-mail address into an image file. Just type in your user name, select your e-mail provider and click Generate. You'll get a picture that displays your address. It also generates a link to the address. I know some of you may be scratching your head, saying, "Why would I want a picture of my e-mail address?" The answer can be summed up in one word: spam. When you post something in a blog or a forum, use the image instead of text. Spammers use automated programs to scour the Web for e-mail addresses. The software can't read image files. But, people who want to contact you will be able to read it. Isn't that cool?" Haven't tried it, but I'm sure I will in a matter of seconds!
