It's just a very smart way to send spam without getting noticed by
spamfilters. Perhaps we'll see an increase in spams such as this, but I
sure hope not since they are almost impossible to deal with for the
filters. To get the filters to understand that it's spam it will need a JS
implementation.

BTW: Speaking of spam, I got a spam mail from a company offering me a mail
address today. The best part? They had filters to block out spam ;-)
