My website was visited by Plukki today:

93.180.64.230 - - [18/Jan/2016:13:03:42 +0100] "GET /robots.txt HTTP/1.1" 301 234 "-" "Mozilla/5.0 (compatible; Plukkie/1.6; http://www.example.com/plukkie.htm)" "www.my.com"
93.180.64.230 - - [18/Jan/2016:13:03:42 +0100] "GET / HTTP/1.1" 301 224 "-" "Mozilla/5.0 (compatible; Plukkie/1.6; http://www.example.com/plukkie.htm)" "www.my.com"

I redirect www.my.com requests to my.com, thus the 301. That's all from the logs. Plukkie gave up? The only existing website is [url]http://www.example.nl/[/url].

Plukki once had its own thead: [webmasterworld.com ] (2009)

Should I block it?

[edit reason] use example.com [/edit]

I don't block it. It's a 3rd level Search Engine based in the Netherlands. Doesn't appear to have much impact. However, as always, YMMV.
