Pixeline's Email Protector

This plugin provides an unobtrusive yet efficient protection against email harvesters / spambots. Here is a demo. Post/page authors may write email addresses in their article in the usual format ("john@doe.com") without exposing them to spam email harvesters. The plugin takes care of the obfuscation, implementing a graceful degradation technique focusing on usability so as to protect your email addresses from harvesters while keeping them usable to your human visitors. The plugin replaces any email address found in posts, pages, comments and excerpts, and replace them by a bit of html markup that should deceive most email harvesters: <span class="email">john(replace the parenthesis by @)doe.com</span>. If javascript is available, it will display a clickable link and display the original email to the human user. Maximum usability, maximum protection. Please rate the plugin if you like it.

1. Unzip the file into your wp-content/plugins directory.
2. In your wp-admin screen, activate the plugin. That's it, your emails are now safe!

Additionally, there is a Settings screen (Email Protector) allowing you you to customize the text that is displayed as a replacement to the email address.
