Did the same suggested google search - nothing. The address that I referred to is an address that I own under my business web location - no way it was sold.
The only way it is displayed on the site is in a special graphic that can not be machine read. And if a viewer clicks on the link to send an email, it goes through an encrypted Java routine - super unlikely anyone has bothered to crack it. The spam isn't too bad but considering I only get one or so official use of this address every several months, it is plainly a bother. My intention on this email was hopefully to notify anyone who might have used it to be sure to check their system. Pretty much the only way it could get out, other than an occasional feeler now and then is if it was grabbed from someone's mail or contacts info.
