Attracting spam bots eh? They are a pain in the arse to get rid of unless you are a programmer yourself. I use this: http://www.stopforumspam.com/search?q=37.220.31.2 (that's the IP of a spam bot). It provides you with multiple replies to test against (XML, json etc) and you can (and I do) send the little buggers into an infinite loop wasting their resources.
