this is not a UA string

however, it is the only Content-Type that is being requested by a bot that triggered several bot traps

headers[Content-Type] = application/x-www-form-urlencoded

i'm wondering what it's up to?

needless to say there are no forms on the bot trap pages

Looks like a comment- or email-spammer trying to locate/exploit forms via automated command-line or other programming.

thanks for your quick input, figured that was probably the case, good to have it confirmed.
