Take a look at this thread: [webmasterworld.com...]
From that thread, there is some indication that this is or may be Bingbot.
Verifying Bingbot
If you see what appears to be Bingbot traffic in your server logs based on a user agent string, for example Mozilla/5.0 (compatible; bingbot/2.0; +http://www.bing.com/bingbot.htm), and you want to know if this traffic really is originating from a Bing server, you can take the following steps:
Perform a reverse DNS lookup using the IP address from the logs to verify that it resolves to a name that end with search.msn.com
Do a forward DNS lookup using the name from step 1 to confirm that it resolves back to the same IP address
[bing.com...]

Indeed, but I also see lot of legitimate Bingbot requests from other ranges, without reverse.
