This one did not read robots.txt and got caught in a spider trap. I'm tired of Yahoo thinking they can get away with this stuff. Yahoo is about to get banned from all my sites.

You're too funny. Actually I've sent an e-mail to a contact of mine at Yahoo! Engineering (they use my browscap.ini file) asking him about all these wild Yahoo! bots. I'll do my best to paraphrase the reply I receive so as not to violate our TOS here.
