Anybody else received heavy crawls from a bot with the user agent string "Mozilla/4.0 (compatible; MSIE 4.01; Windows NT; MS Search 4.0 Robot) Microsoft"? We're getting it hard and heavy from an IP that reverse resolves to definite MS address space.

Haven't seen that one myself...interesting. Wonder if that will be the MS solution to dumping INK -> doing it themselves? Hm....I keep expecting them to change any day now...

It's an old agent. I've had it blocked for over a year now.
