Project Honey Pot Spam Trap

This plugin automatically scatters invisible links to Project Honey Pot spam traps
throughout your wordpress blog to help catch and stop spammers.
Project Honey Pot is the first and only distributed system for identifying spammers and the spambots they use
to scrape addresses from your website. Using the Project Honey Pot system you can install addresses that are
custom-tagged to the time and IP address of a visitor to your site. If one of these addresses begins receiving
email Project Honey Pot not only can tell that the messages are spam, but also the exact moment when the address
was harvested and the IP address that gathered it.
Install this plugin to help contribute to the project and catch spammers by hiding links to honey pots (spam traps)
in your blog. The links are never visible to human visitors, but the spambots and crawlers follow them straight into
the traps.
Note: this plugin will not directly prevent spam on your site, but will help prevent spam for everyone by helping to catch the spammers.
If you also want to use the Project Honey Pot API to detect and block spammers from your site, try the http:BL plugin.
Features
