Hi, what I would like to know is what intention do have bots (the humans behind the bots) to make useless entries into blogs or - in my case - in signing on to get a newsletter with non existent nonsense email addresses. The only sense in that behavior I can think of is that there must be any kind of forms where robots _do_ have any advantage from and all the other entries (like in my newsletter) are just "collateral damages" But up to now I couldn't imagine any sense behind that and couldn't find anyone who could tell me. But I am sure you can! Tiemo
