Freaky spiders

This one is home grown.

Pulled 112 pages in a reasonable length of time. Seems to obey the RES.

This one has perked my curiosity.

Anybody ever use the Webclipping robot? I know what it is for but wondered if anybody used their service or had info on them. I've been getting hit from them every day for months.

That unlost.com front page does grab your attention.

I had been hit by webclipping.com as well for weeks (every day, deep spidering)

I wrote them numerous emails to ask if they could spider once a week and if they obey robots.txt.

No response. I ended just banning them in my .htaccess.
