It likes to go looking for files that aren't actually present on my web server, which generates a fair amount of log output that I usually like to keep an eye on. That isn't a big problem in and of itself, it just bloats the logs. The user agent strings are now something like: "PLM/0.1" and "lwp-trivial/1.41". Could they, perhaps, get a little bit more informative, like: "PLM/0.1 patch spider http://developer.osdl.org/dev/stp/"; Also, it would be kind if they obeyed robots.txt, or at least fetched it. My log analyzer will detect robots based just on fetching "robots.txt" when beginning a crawl. -- Dave
