Isn't that just a browser? Although admittedly the IP has several ports open...

If it doesn't get supporting files, it's far more likely to be a robotic faker than a bona fide human. Putting up a plausible humanoid UA is pretty much standard practice with robots these days. (At least among the ones that get in. Obvious robotic UAs tend to come without the appropriate headers, so for me they are out of sight, out of mind.)

Is it just me, or ... does “Golden Link” sound vaguely dirty?

I purposefully avoided any comment on that possibility!

I'm not getting your point, why you have written IP address and host details?

It's because this is the Search Engine Spider ID Forum. ;)

@jayright ...

IP, ISP and HOST are often part of a pattern when identifying bad actors. That said, just because an entity is identified here (ww) that does not mean it IS A BAD ACTOR, only that one webmaster has found the actions abusive for their site.
