"rogue bots are the #1 issue we face"

I'm seeing it too on a much smaller sized message board. I've seen some over in the phpbb forums wondering "why all these large increases in visitors online?" Sometimes ten fold of the actual registered visitors on much smaller boards. It has been posted in their forums but nobody had an answer for it.

How else can it be explained? Man I really feel for Brett because I've been dealing with what almost looks to be the same problem. I was on a shared server and they shut it down twice. I've recently upgraded but the strange IP's are still hammering away.

But then again, I'm kinda lost with alot of this stuff
