somebody is currently on my site gobbling up 100's of pages within milliseconds.. but when i do reverse lookup on the ip it's a google ip...

details:
IP Address: 64.233.173.nn
User Agent: mozilla/4.0 (compatible; msie 6.0; windows nt 5.1; sv1; .net clr 1.1.4322)

i'm guessing it's spoofed. so if i blacklist this ip in my htaccess is google going to kick me for it?

No spoofing. It's just a Google service: [webaccelerator.google.com ]

See [webmasterworld.com...]

However, people do SCRAPE from Google services, including the translator.
