That's odd herb. Are you sure your robots.txt is valid? [searchengineworld.com...] Otherwise try disallowing user-agent: slurp

How old is your robots.txt file? Maybe the bot isn't aware of the new restrictions yet...

The robots file is and has been valid. Ink has spidered the site ignoring the restricted areas for the past year. This just started two days ago. Yesterday it was visiting about once an hour and grabbing only the forums. Received a message from the folks at Yahoo and they are reviewing the situation.
