No Clint.. Like my [EMAIL PROTECTED] address is getting more and more junk mail. After I encoded it on my home page, it seemed to slack off, but now is getting worse and worse. But I also have that on a few other pages that I didn't encode because I thought they stopped at the main home page. Now, I have more than one email address on the other pages, but this first one seems to get the most....so maybe they only pull out the first email address.
Jeff Dougherty www.intrepid-video.com www.tech-repair.net ----- Original Message ----- From: "[EMAIL PROTECTED]" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> If I may add (what Gerald is saying) that encompasses any password protected pages. For other pages, if you don't have a robots text file specified, the SpamBots (and search engines) will spider the pages. So, if you don't have one and the page is not password protected, it will get spidered. Now if someone could only come up with a robots text file command that would keep out the parasites and let the search engines in, that would be a miracle. Are you saying Jeff that this email address IS encoded and it's still getting attacked? -Clint God Bless Us All Clint Hamilton, Owner http://OrpheusComputing.com ) ----- Original Message ----- From: "Gerry Boyd" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> At 08:37 PM 10/17/03 -0400, [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote the following: >These places that spider your site, do they just hit the home page or also >hit subpages? >I've had my email addresses encoded for some time now, but the SPA* is >getting a lot worse at the one >email that I only use on the webpages... All pages of all depths and all directories UNLESS one of two conditions are found. 1. Robots.txt file that tells the web spiders what directories are OK or not OK 2. Directories where the Unix file permissions are set to not allow reading Example: Try to see http://www.expita.com/cgi-bin/ whereas this one is open http://www.expita.com/images/ Robots.txt tutorial http://www.searchengineworld.com/robots/robots_tutorial.htm ============= PCWorks Mailing List ================= Don't see your post?
