-----------------------
This is what I am trying now to prevent some of the harvesting of
email addresses at my site. I have not emplemented it everywhere, but it does
seem to help where it has been placed in lieu of plain email addys.

--------- Just remove the periods before script and the period before the
exclamation point, then put your email name, your server name, and what you
want
shown when a visitor goes to write you. It is a simple javascript code that
seems to do ok. You could simply type the screen name on the page such as
you-at-whateverserver.com which is still considered safe from spiders and
bots.
These links may help you also.
