In the vain (dont be so fecking stupid Andy) attempt to keep the spam away I put my email addy in the user profile page and in a hyperlink and not my signature, does this free me from slurp spider bott spam inflicting attention? Jules? anyone?

sadly nope it doesn't, I removed my email and skype address for the same reason but it was a bit late and my hotmail account gets spammed rather heavily.

if you hover your mouse over the link it has you email address clear as day
