It pounded my site earlier.

p-proxy-1-int0.net.wisc.edu - - [11/Mar/2003:21:33:59 -0800] "GET /Aboriginal_Aboriginal-General.html HTTP/1.0" 200 13700 "-" "Mozilla/4.0 (compatible; T-H-U-N-D-E-R-S-T-O-N-E)"

Try a 'site search' for

thunderstone

seems like people have noticed this one before. Didn't read all the pages in the results, but odds are good you'll find what you're after that way.

Since we're on the subject of site searching....

How come it is I had to remove the hyphens in T-H-U-N-D-E-R-S-T-O-N-E, for the search to be effective?

Are we forgetting our search engine math?

1 +1 -1 do not equal 1 to a search engine.

This search engine has been around for quite a long time. When I used to use go2net.com (a metacrawler) the thunderstone results it pulled out used to be quite good.

As far as I remember, Thunderstone is a commercial search engine with a licence fee of about $800. From talking to some people who have used it, it is fairly good. What you may be seeing is spidering from some small alternative search engine.

Whatever their fees and capabilities are are hardly relavant to the poor explantion they offer for using our funds and properties. Thereby avoiding intent of use altogether, or even who they are providing the "retrieved" information to.
