Hello...In reviewing our IIS logs we are seeing many occurrences of web robots scanning our site. Like all things, I am seeing there are good robots and bad robots. I'd like to know your thoughts on spending time implementing measures to block the bad robots from scanning and indexing the web-site. Your opinions with a short explanation are appreciated. bob ********************************************************************** CONFIDENTIALITY NOTICE: This message is intended only for the lawful and specified use of the individual or entity to which it is addressed and may contain information that is privileged, confidential or exempt from disclosure under applicable law.
