Re: what is this

["Alfredo Delgado" <adelgado@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Have you seen this site (http://www.letmegooglethatforyou.com), Maurice? It
comes in handy when you can't help but repeat the cliche and it employs
humor so you don't come across looking like a tool.

On the subject of forum spam, here's something I've done in the past and it
had mixed, though mostly positive, results -- YMMV. The majority of these
spam posts are automated so the process relies on a program parsing the
form. It takes another level of sophistication to interpret the CSS
associated with the form. If you add an extra field to your form and give it
a class with "display: none;" your human users should never see it and the
majority of your automated spammers will fill it in.
