obot spidered by 5 day old site

[coffeelover]

I just opened a site, and it was spidered by obot... How can it be this thing in Germany if I have only submitted my site to yahoo, google, zeal a few days ago, and put a link from my other site? I was also hit my Looksmart right afterwards, and a few days ago by Google.

Here is the log:

Would the last one be a Zeal editor, maybe?

Thanks.

MARTINI is a link checking robot from Looksmart. The Zeal robot has Zealbot or something similar in the user agent.

It it is cobion as I suspect: they sell some cooperate filter boxes which report by default unknown urls (visited by surfers in the companies using them) back to cobion for checking.
If you had some traffic through such a box with reporting enabled...
