Random Address Generation

Web Spiders
Today's most insidious list-gathering tools are web spiders. All of the major search engines spider the web, saving information about each page. Spammers use tools that also spider the web, but save any e-mail address they come across. Your personal web page lists your e-mail address? Prepare for an onslaught!
Chat Room Harvesting
ISP's offer vastly popular chat rooms where users are known only by their screen names. Of course, spammers know that your screen name is the first part of your e-mail address.

What percentage of Internet bandwidth is email or online spam or ads?
According to Wikipedia - up to 95% http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spam_(electronic) There are many who are talking about "the end of the Internet" in 2011. Although I think those words are a dramatization, I would not discredit the seriousness of the statement. Here are a couple of other links to find more information so you can make your own decision. http://www.iht.com/articles/2008/03/12/business/net.php?page=1 http://www.technologynewsdaily.com/node/3760 http://bcn.boulder.co.us/inet/inetspam.htm Sorry to not have put this in HTML but I wasn't sure I could do that here.

it takes up space on your computer's memory. If spam were not controlled, made illegal, filtered and discouraged, every business would send emails to everybody as often as they could. Remember that email is very cheap and a business can send literally millions of messages every day.
So every email address everywhere would receive thousands and thousands of advertising messages every day. Your mailbox would fill up in a few seconds, then all further messages would be refused.
If you were to receive a legitimate email, from a friend, during that time, it would be impossible to find that message among your thousands of spam messages, or due to your full mailbox, your friends would not be able to contact you at all.
So email would become useless.
Spam takes up time and bandwidth that could be better spent on other things. A good portion of all internet traffic and all computational transactions is spam related. This doesn't just reduce the number of computer cycles and the bandwidth available for more productive purposes, but it also costs energy, thus contributing to both the global energy-scarcity problem and global warming.

A spambot is a bot that automatically sends junk (or spam) email.
As far as i know, it's not a real word. Computation would be the word you're looking for, which means any information processed through a program to give a result. It's just the general processing of data.
I pronounce it how it looks, with the o being a long o.
