Anyone know what this is?

I get this referrer in my logs often. Anybody happen to know what it is? I know its obviously yahoo. But I thought they did not use crawlers.

James,

You're 100% correct... although it doesn't happen as quickly as we'd like, Yahoo does send out a `Morgue Bot' to check and see if the `link/site' is still valid.

Nothing to be concerned about - unless you've changed something to/with the URL and haven't issued a proper 301.
