Allowing people to contact you but defeating spammers

If you will look to the right, you will see my 'About' box in the sidebar. Pretty standard right? The only thing is that usually people don't put in their email address without disguising it like edusprouts (at) gmail (dot) com which is just a pain if someone wants a no-fuss way to contact the blogger. The box is actually a Sprout and I have linked the text to a "mail to:" URL reference. Because the Sprout is in flash I am thinking that spambots arent going to be able to harvest the address. (Attention: If you are a spam bot, I really don't need any pharmaceuticals!)
