Unicoding your email address to stop harvesting robots getting it
If you convert the characters of your email address to unicide, it can look like a normal mailto: link and work pefectly well, but the underlying code is actually a string of unicode characters that looks like this for my email address:
mailto:keith@
milsoms
.com
When displayed on a web page it converts back to proper characters but it cannot be read by robots so they cannot harvest it for their spam directories.
I have purchased the rights to a neat little tool that converts email addresses into code you can paste into your web pages and as a thank you for visiting my spam site you can have it free!

It is a .exe file that has been zipped - you just unzip it on your computer and duble click the file to run it (or set up a shortcut to it on your desktop). If you need it, you can get a free trial of Winzip to unzip it here
