From what I understand, if you also post your email addy on any of the pages, it is possible for it to automaticly be picked up by a program that is designed to look for addies. I never post my addy on boards anymore. I have gotten viruses sent to me and trash email on a secured account.

BTW, to avoid from having your email addies picked up, seperate it so that it does not make a direct link. For example email@ address.com If you put them together, it makes a link email@address.com
