216.32.64.10 ?

[mark roach]

Any ideas where 216.32.64.10 is from ?

It took about 400 pages from 200 domains yesterday.

20 hours prior to that Architext took my robots.txt (and nothing else) on those domains, Coincidence ?

Just found it on another domain of mine. Some of the pages it is taking have question marks in the urls.

Last month lycos.co.uk indexed some pages containing question marks in the URLs. Direct hit grabber came to this site for the 1st time ever yesterday and also took pages with question marks in the URLs. I think I need a robots.txt on my cgi directory.

>We do honor robots.txt files by following rules designated for all user agents (the wildcard character '*').

Does this mean that they cannot be excluded, except by excluding all spiders?
