I only use timc+ozoneasylum@divide.net one at this site, and I can't even find any postings I've made here. (To tell you the truth, I can't even remember why I registered. Did this site happen to have a thread from a mechanic who abused a customer's muscle car and bragged about it? That's the closest thing to a recollection I can pull out of my brain.) So how would this spammer have harvested my e-mail?

Click on the little profile button at the top of your post. See?

Personally, I've never been spammed from here, but has anyone thought of encoding the @ symbol as [ampersand]#64;? It's not much, but it'll throw off the dumbest harvesters
