Free Version_ui (user defined background image) allows you to use one of the four background gif images provided: Click Here to Contact Us, or you may use your own image. The flash button is transparent and blank, it is placed over the background image. The provided button's name, size and background color can be also be adjusted. Scroll down to [Button Image Option] below for details.

Free Version_pi (pre-loaded image) The "Click Here" link is built into the flash button. The button has added security by using two unique hidden folder names.

You can return to RobotRoadblock anytime to update your "block email & form spam" buttons. Simply use the encoder below to generate a new code and folder name, then apply the same two changes to your web site. Updating the button only takes a few minutes after initial setup.
