Caught in a SandTrap

About two weeks ago I made a Perl script that traps malicious bots (specifically spambots) that visit a website using the script, clutters the spambots email lists with an infinite amount of randomly generated email addresses, and blocks the bot from the web server. I am hosting the scripts on Sourceforge under the name SandTrap.

I am hoping that the script will be used on at least a few servers and that some perl/CGI junkies might help touch it up a little eventually. The website for SandTrap is not functional at the moment but the layout is done. The full website will eventually be at sandtrap.sourceforge.net.
