shug,

There are numerous solutions to this problem.

1. Change your site so that the email addresses are displayed as graphics that can't be picked up by spam-bots. You will need some software to do that.

2. Change the site so that the email addresses are modified in such a way as to make it obvious to humans what the email address should be, but, hard for bots to see......

i.e. John&johnsmith.com is displayed as:
"no-spam-john@johnsmith.com"......you get the idea?

3. Install a form to email your true consumers. The form will hide the true email address from bots, but, will allow humans to communicate with valid human contacts.

There are many other solutions, these are just 3 simple ones :)
