Funny, whenever I try that sight I get this:
     "Yes, attacking spammers is wrong, you know this, you shouldn't be doing it. Your ip    address and request have been logged and will be reported to your ISP for further action."

On a reload I got this added to it:
    "Also, note: This machine is not hacked, this page is returned for EVERY request. Thanks for noticing though."

What Monty spoke of sounds a bit like LaBrea.  It is a program to feed fake content to page crawlers, crackers, skimmers, etc. and slow them down in the process.  Think of a slow Honeynet.  You may be able to add to its effectiveness by adding a Honeynet.

True, except the Lycos people are very careful and are using a database of 
well know spammers.  Visit their website to get more information.
