I collected some interesting information about it here
This site has some ways to trap bad robots. It's kinda funny to read. That Microsoft URL Control thing is weird, there doesn't seem to be any official information on it. ____________________ |

It's the User-Agent that Ninetales' Po100T Thread Checker leaves behind.
TinaSitter would probably do something similar too, if she left behind data in the board database. ____________________ I dealt with it. |

That makes sense, actually, because a lot of sites that mention the user-agent, they hint that it's associated with VB in some way.
Still though, internet web crawlers are kinda scary. I mean, some make money off your site without giving anything back. ____________________ |

Yes. But in the inverse, sometimes they can help you make money (by directing users there when they have a search your site hits high for).
Although, yes, having money being made off of you (searches coupled with ads) feels wrong at first, it's more of a symbiotic relationship, in that they give us hits and we give them an index they can stick ads next to. ____________________ I dealt with it. |

TinaSitter doesn't use Microsoft URL Control. It uses raw winsocks. UserAgent is "Tina". ____________________ Wife make lunch - Shampoo Opera - give it a spin Spare some of your free time? <GreyMaria> I walked around the Lake so many goddamn times that my sex drive was brutally murdered Kawa rocks — byuu |

I just lay out a robots.txt file. I want that thar Alexa thing to archive my site a lot, but Google should stay away from my dynamically generated content. |
