Mainseek bot

this bot is ripping through our site

[ssgumby]

Anyone know what this BOT is? It does NOT obey robots.txt. It is grabbing every file on my site and has been doing so for days now.

Any idea how I can block this completely?

Thanks

if a bot is ignoring the robots.txt, you can try to stop it by blocking the ip address it is coming from.

ps they discussed mainseek a little more over here [webmasterworld.com...]
