Hmmm ... Well a couple weeks ago I noticed M$ showing up in my JavaScript stats, and today I've got GoogleBot doing the same thing ... They're not quite as far along as M$ (or choose not to be) because they're missing the jQuery grab of the variable from the source code of the page, and they're really F'ing up my stats and they're COMPLETELY disregarding the robots.txt ... I think G's about to get banned from the files I don't want them to call in the .htaccess.

This is the first time in nearly 9 years I've seen G blatantly disregard robots.txt and they're doing it with a GoogleBot UA. I've given these guys the benefit of the doubt on not crawling robots.txt so many times it's not even funny, but this JS file is disallowed, so there's no way a GBot user-agent should be in my JS Stats.
