heres their website, appears to be under going some changes or something
»makelovenotspam.com/intl

/edit
when you view the source of that page it says this

<!--
- Unfortunately, Microsoft has added a clever new
- "feature" to Internet Explorer. If the text in
- an error's message is "too small", specifically
- less than 512 bytes, Internet Explorer returns
- its own error message. Yes, you can turn that
- off, but *surprise* it's pretty tricky to find
- buried as a switch called "smart error
- messages" That means, of course, that many of
- Resin's error messages are censored by default.
- And, of course, you'll be shocked to learn that
- IIS always returns error messages that are long
- enough to make Internet Explorer happy. The
- workaround is pretty simple: pad the error
- message with a big comment to push it over the
- five hundred and twelve byte minimum. Of course,
- that's exactly what you're reading right now.

Re: Stopping spammers

Looks like the site is down, perhaps for good? Interesting concept, but looks like the spammers are the winners.

Re: Stopping spammers

Who really knows...Lycos claims the site isn't down and that they are just "undergoing changes" while others claim the site was taken down by hackers. It's a big point the finger game.

You're right though, it is an interesting concept.
