What is Spam Bait Creator?
This program automatically creates a web page containing a user
specified number of random mailto: links. Once created the user
places the generated html page on their web server and then links
to it from their main web page.
What is the purpose of Spam Bait Creator?
Some Internet spammers have programs that constantly search web
sites for email addresses. With these collected email addresses
the spammer will send junk email or sell the address to other
spammers. When one of these programs encounters a web page
created by Spam Bait Creator it will save the fake email
addresses into the email address database. Spammers do not have
the time to weed out the fake email addresses by hand. The more
fake email addresses that get into the spammers database, the
less desireable the database becomes. The less desireable the
database, the less people will buy the database from the spammer.
The less people that buy the database, the less spam will be sent
out.
Who should use Spam Bait Creator?
Anyone who has a webpage and hates spammers should use Spam Bait
Creator. Usage of this program provides some satisfaction that
you may be causing some headaches for spammers.
How do I use Spam Bait Creator?
Unzip the archive into a directory on your hard disk. There is no
installation program. Run the program by double clicking on the
icon. Enter the number of bogus email addresses that you want to
create and click the "Generate HTML File" button. A
"Save As" dialog box appears that lets you save your
html file. Once the file is saved then upload the file to your
web site and make a link to it from one of your main pages. If
the program complains about a missing dll then you probably need
to download the file mfc42a.zip available from one of the
following locations:
ftp:mfc42a.zip
ftp:mfc42a.zip
ftp:mfc42a.zip
Once you have downloaded the file extract the dlls and place them in you Windows\System directory.
