Similar programs exist. They're called spiders, and spam users use them 
to leech all the email addresses from a website. I'm sure you could find 
one if you wanted to and simply point it to the page in question.

A much simpler suggestion: Click "View Source" in your browser and Find 
(cmd-F) any occurrence of "mailto:"; to find the links on the page.

Or just use "[EMAIL PROTECTED]" and assume the morons who put the site 
together actually have such an email address. Most domains do.
