On the surface, 200 pages in three months doesn't represent anything to be alarmed about.

Could you post a recent UA string? Thanks.

Googling augurfind [google.com] pulled up this thread:

swiss bot: augurfind
[webmasterworld.com].

Then again, perhaps since WebGather 3.0 re-emerges... [webmasterworld.com] there may very well be others just like augurfind out there being resurected.

Yikes! Just what we all needed. More bots running amok.

'augurfind' is the ua string. as i said, this is just fyi. i didn't say i was alarmed, but a search of webmasterworld didn't turn it up -- so i thought i'd record it for the benefit of anyone else who looks for it in the future so they would benefit thereby and not be alarmed. :-)
