Seems to have found our site by following our link in DMOZ.

From their "about" page: "... combines the efficiency of our world-class meta-search engine with the largest and most comprehensive human-edited directory of the World Wide Web."

ip-216-69-177-55.ip.secureserver.net - - [18/Jun/2006:16:35:07 +1000] "GET /robots.txt HTTP/1.0" 200 1862 "-" "GOFORITBOT ( [goforit.com...] )"

Unknown as yet if it obeys robots.txt

Done! Thanks for the tip wilderness. I'm assuming that secureserver.net is a server farm. Please correct me if I'm wrong.

Mokita,
I know nothing of secureserver.net except it seems to be Go Daddy Software, Inc.

I seem to be out of the loop on Go Daddy Software (GO-DADDY-SOFTWARE-INC). Are their four netranges known for hosting bad bots?

Gary,
In addition to what ever Software they hawk, Go Daddy is a domain registrar.

I've been blocking GoDaddy's network for quite some time now.

They host a LOT of pure 100% USDA crap sites.

Thanks Don. I initially thought they were just a registrar. Maybe it was this crap that was clogging up the Senator's tubes?
