EMail Address Obfuscator v1.0.2 "This will obfuscate email addresses in posts in order to prevent email harvesting. There are a couple of methods available: - Image; the email will be displayed as an image, works quite well but not very user friendly.
- HTML Entities; every character in the email address will be replaced with it's html entity. This is not a great method, but it stops stupid harvestors.
- Javascript; the link will be written via javascript, works quite well and makes the link invisible for harvestors. But requires javascript to be enabled
- Custom; roll-your-own algorithm, can be easily set in the vbulletin options in the admincp"
