Ever hear the term "botnet" or "spiders?"

Many have not grasped the extent to which computers surf The Web as compared to humans.  Just the same as Bing, Google, and Yahoo! search your site with a computer program to determine when it should show up in search results, Spammers use like programs, sometimes called spiders, to gobble up email addresses off your site.
