It read robots.txt and then proceeded to request nothing but files that don't exist. This is the second time I've seen a bot claiming to be from Amazon.com with no apparent purpose. Anyone have any ideas what it's all about? Thanks.

Thanks. :)

I agree with the comments in the original thread about that IP range being worthy of banning.
