I'm seeing a bot in my log files:

(Yahoo-MMCrawler/3.x (mm dash crawler at trd dot overture dot com)

that resolves to mmscrm03-1.sac.overture.com and the whois says overture.com;

but I also get -

Network Data
Network id#: 1
Qwest Cybercenters QWEST-CYBERCENTER-2 (NET-66-77-0-0-1)
66.77.0.0 - 66.77.255.255
Fast Search, Inc. QWEST-MCC-FASTSRCH3 (NET-66-77-73-0-1)
66.77.73.0 - 66.77.73.255

ARIN WHOIS database, last updated 2004-02-19 19:15

is this a new crawler that's using a FAST/Overture combo of some sort..?
