SPAM bot and general security question...

[Jon D. Slater]

If this question is off topic (or there's a better place to ask it), please
let me know.

 

I'm running Apache 2.0.54 under FC4 2.6.14-1.1656.

 

I *think* I've successfully java scripted all of my e-mail address links to
prevent SPAM bots from harvesting them.

 

Question 1:  How do I know?  (Is there some script or test I can run that
will look for vulnerable e-mail addresses exposed on my web site?)

 

Question 2:  If a .cgi script generates a web page on-the-fly (like many
packages do), and if that generated page includes an e-mail link to
support at blahblahblah.com, is that e-mail address also vulnerable?  Or does
it have to be in an ".html" file to be bot'ed?

 

Thanks!

 

Jon
