E-Mail Address Garbler:

Building a web site generally means that you need to put an email address or two on the site. Next, if you want to be seen, you publish your existence in some Internet Directories, or Search Engine. Before you know it, you're receiving SPAM! The dreaded junk email that is continuously spewed out by irresponsible, cash frenzied morons.

Need to publish an email address on your site, and DON'T want SPAM to arrive in your InBox?

You need to put your email address up on your page in a format that can't be read by e-mail syphoning programs.

I found a web site that did this for you, but didn't trust that the email address wasn't being captured at the same time, so I wrote a spreadsheet to do the same thing, so I can run it off-line, and no-one can capture the address.

Requirements:

Spreadsheet program - Either MS Excel (95 or greater version), or something that can read MS Excel format worksheets.

That's it!

Oh... one more thing... by downloading this spreadsheet, you indemnify me/us/my company/my aunts, uncles and everyone I know against damages. I have virus checked it, there are no-macros in it (if you find a macro in the sheet, it's been corrupted, possibly by a Macro Virus, DON'T USE IT!).

More MS Office based, Perl & shell-script based tools.
