Based on my notes the "heritrix" name has been associated with the Wayback Machine. I've got notes on it going back to 2000.

Heritrix is from the wayback machine, but they released it publicly and this is the first time I've ever seen WORIO using it.

Last time I saw it was this company:

209.128.119.nnn "Mozilla/5.0 (compatible; heritrix/1.6.0 +http://innovationblog.com)

Which is related to accelovation.com as the blog is registered to a principle @ accelovation and they appear to be a data sniffer company.

Thanks Bill. I guess I missed the thread where that was discussed.

Same Host info as Bill (University of British Columbia). Also, no robots.txt, and a malformed referer --

[Hh]eritrix has long been on my 403 hit list.
