But how in the first place, is apache even downloading the bots.txt, and
then, running it? Is it running in-memory, since it's not anywhere in the
filesystem ?

And what commands can be run on port 80 to do the download/run of the
script?

does ANYBODY even know what bots.txt even DOES?

bots.txt should look like this:

accept all
reject altaVista

look at virussin.com/bots.txt to see what it SHOULD do... its for
SEARCH EINGINES. the bot grabs it, looks at it, and it its on the
white list of eingines, it caches the site, if its on the blacklist
(reject), it sulks away into a corner...
