It is very easy take part in this project. If you have a PHP enabled web site, simply include the following code somewhere in your home page (or all your pages):
<?php
$REMOTE_ADDR = getenv("REMOTE_ADDR");
$bait = base64_encode($REMOTE_ADDR);
?>
<div style="display:none">
<p>The following addresses are spamtraps. Do not use them or you will be banned from hundreds of web sites</p>
<a href="mailto:<?php echo $bait; ?><?=rand(1,999)?>@spywareinfo.org">Webmaster</a>
<a href="mailto:<?php echo $bait; ?><?=rand(1,999)?>@spywareinfo.org">Editor</a>
<a href="mailto:<?php echo $bait; ?><?=rand(1,999)?>@spywareinfo.org">Sales</a>
</div>
Try to put this code somewhere near the bottom of your page rather than at the top, as the addresses will be visible to a few visitors. There is still a small number of people using primitive browsers that do not understand CSS. These less advanced browsers will be able to see the addresses. Anyone using a text browser will also be able to see them. That is the reason for the warning, to keep people from using the addresses and being listed as a spammer.
Any page using this code must be recognized by your server as a php file. The file must end with .php, .php3, or .phtml. If, for some reason, you cannot change your files to these extensions, you can set your server to look for PHP inside of plain .html files using an .htaccess configuration file.
Create a text file named ".htaccess" and paste the following lines into it:
#Options +FollowSymlinks
AddType application/x-httpd-php .php .php3 .phtml .html .htm
If you get an error message when you next load the page, remove the #.
If your web site does not have PHP available, you will be unable to generate an email address from the spambot's IP. I will be looking for ways to do this using ASP, SSI, and perl, but currently I don't know how to do that.
For now, you can insert the following code into your page. The spambot will follow the link and find email addresses here at SpywareInfo.
<span style="display:none;">
<a href="http://www.spywareinfoforum.info/harvest_project/welcome.php">email</a>
</span>
Choose one of these logos to download and use on your site, and then link back to this page with it. Don't hotlink the image from my server please.
My sincere thanks to everyone that contributed one or more of these logos. If you would like to contribute a logo, please let me know.
After you have put the code into your page(s), send me an email with the address of your site and I'll add your link as soon as I take a look at it.
When you contact me...
- Include the name and address of your web site
- Make sure you have picked out a logo to use to link back to this page
- Make sure you have already put the code into your page and tested that it works ok
No web sites will be accepted which contains pornographic content, promotes or uses spyware or browser hijackers, promotes or distributes warez, or anything else that I decide is inappropriate.
My apologies if I am unable to reply to your email. I receive so much of it these days ..... I will add your link whether I reply to the email or not. Your site will be listed among the other project members.
