Googlebot is nowhere to be found in my Webtrends reports. I contacted the company and they said a new, updated list will be available next month. until then, is there anyone with Webtrends out there that would be willing to share their file of spiders to check for?
Feel free to reply here or sticky-mail me. Thank you in advance.

The spider list is hard coded in the "wtm_log.dll". WebTrends has .ini files for search engine definitions, excluding robots but to my knowledge it hasn't got a separete .ini file for spider definitions. Silly isn't it?
As long as you can see the "Top Browsors Table" it's not the end of the world.

I agree with Internetguru's post. Had a long conversation with WebTrends last year about the same issue. You can update keywords.ini to keep referrers up-to-date but can't touch the spidey source.
