Visited one site on 22 November with sufficiently humanoid headers.

IP: 72.52.108.abc
UA: Mozilla/5.0 (compatible; DocSpotBot/1.0; +http://docspot.com/bot.html)
robots.txt: no

The URL given in the UA leads to an https redirect followed by a Firefox “insecure site” warning. I did not push on from there. IP is, I think, in one of those hopeless Verizon/Frontier/Fairpoint sprawls.

Used a browser emulator on that bot page & received an Error Code:51 which basically indicates the site is attempting to inject a script element, but failing.

I block the range...
Host: Hurricane Hosting
72.52.64.0 - 72.52.127.255
72.52.64.0/18

followed by a Firefox “insecure site” warning
From the DocSpotBot home page:
search for doctors and therapists
Might explain the "insecure" message.

Matter of fact, the “therapists” bit might explain why it landed on this particular site.

Hm. So it's Doc as in Doctor, not Doc as in Document.
