I had a look at who's online just now, and among the guests every so often was listed a google spider.
WTF?

It is one of Google's web crawlers (or "spiders") adding pages to its Index. We get quite a lot of them, usually there is at least one on 24/7.
After the upgrade the forums gained the ability to recognise if guests were really web crawlers and now marks them appropriatly.

That's ok, I moved it to the wrong forum to start with. :p
I am still on shuffling-threads-to-Tech-Help autopilot :cheeky:

Ah, I was wondering about those. An Ask Jeeves spider was around as well.

Spiders in the forums, you say? Right, give me a mug and a sheet of card, and I'm your man.
Oh, those spiders, right

Did you know that the average TTLG Forum swallows approximately 8 spiders per year? ;)
