Second this ! :D Did you ever hear of the guy who wrote a C based 'bot trap and brought down both a big name search engine mining bot, and a providers (major) Unix server ? LOL! He apparently didn't like the idea that the bot had the right to mine his site for data.... and so, a few lines of C, and Tada! Deadlock, on endless nested directories. Dueling Servers at Dawn ! He had to write a letter of apology to his service provider, and to the search engine. I think it can still be found online somewhere.... :{
