"OOZBOT/0.17 (--; http://www.setooz.com/oozbot.html; pvvpr at iiit dot ac dot in)"

Read robots.txt

Site says under construction and the oozbot.html page is a 404.

Yep, this is a real winner.

From their oozbot.html page:
OOZBOT obeys Robots Exclusion Protocol (robots.txt).

That's amusing because that page was a 404 last night.

Someone must've fixed it ;)

I saw this one too a few days ago. Says something about indexing indian pages I think. Wonderful confidence building name - oooozbot, like a slug oooozing into your website! I

All it seemed to do was read robots then hit my main page. I'm going with other's practice of deep sixing it when I couldn't get to the page listed in the UA.

Hit me today, got rejected due to the advance warning posted here.

I think the IP was 67.215.230.xx which actually shows as being in Santa Ana, CA, USA.
