OverTure spider

Purpose and origin of this mass crawler?

[Jaze]

Hi all,

Searched all over the place for info on this but struggling to get answers...

Regarding this spider
cr008r01-3.sac.overture.com
IP: 66.77.73.167

Spent an average of 2 hours and 21 minutes crawling 524 pages (including php and pdf's) in 2 sessions.

Does anyone know the purpose of this spider?
Is it OverTure using Scooter (AV) technology?

Thanks for any help...

If memory serves, this is the alltheweb.com spider.
