How long would it take a "real human" to browse the entire web? Clicking on all the links, reading every page, etc., etc.. It would seem to me that the bandwidth "wasted" by webbots would me minimized in direct proportion to their performance and functionality (assuming their function is to crawl the _entire_ web). "polite" webbot shouldnt be as much of a problem or nusiance to those who dont like the bot. -JP "except for ad's that pay-per-click ;-)" -JP -jp _______________________________________________ Fun and Misc security discussion for OT posts. https://linuxbox.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/funsec Note: funsec is a public and open mailing list.
