You'll find the link itself renders a 404 and that trimming the link back shows as a dating service.

A log spammer by any other name?

Never got the dating service, adminshop is my #1 referred log spammer. I get more adminshop spam than visitors. I'd love to spam their logs...

I doubt that FiNDoBot is a log spammer.

However, this puppy scarfs down files at an unacceptable rate and does NOT respect robots.txt, so I banned 'em via IP Numbers.

Maybe in a year or so they'll get the message.
