Hello everybody,

Tittle is not serious but the question is.
I never submite my website to Looksmart. I'm not in its data base. But, for several mounth Looksmart come to visit me with:

Mozilla/4.0 compatible ZyBorg/1.0 (wn.zyborg@looksmart.net; http*//www.WISEnutbot.com)
For example, this mounth it came 292 times.

Why and for what purpose Looksmart is visiting me?
Is it possible to ban this spider without losing something I don't know?

I have incredibly high numbers from that bot as well over the past few months.

If it's their content crawler I should be ranked very well.

1024 hits so far this month alone.

Zyborg is now forbidden on my site.

BUT! it seems working with http*//grub.org which use a special screensaver on surfer's PC and my website is constantly hammered by a lot of different people from different places. What are they doing? Even after visiting http*//grub.org, I'm not able to say what is the purpose of visiting my site.

Anybody have an idea?
