Who's it from and what purpose does it serve?

Whats the "sv" mean?

Thanks.

You're correct about the av.com belonging to altavista.com (unless they've sold that domain).

The trek?? part is the particular spider/cluster that's crawling your site, similar to crawl?.google.com.

I'm not sure about the sv part, my best guess is either server or searchvista, or something like that.

Thanks. It had like 20 sessions in three days on a site that's only about 30 pages deep.

Sheesh!
