---- The Mozilla/5.0 Google bot - What does it do

Another theory about this bot is that it checks for cloaking. I've got a site that I am constantly working on, changing pages around a bit. I'm really done with all the SEO changes that I wanted to make and the site has been in the sandbox for over 8 months. I've decided to let the site "stabilize" a bit.

I half wonder if part of my problem is related to this little bot that picks up the constant changes I had been making. Perhaps kicking in some kind of cloaking penalty for the site. Not sure, but I have not read a good explantion for its visits.
