    Well - I just looked at "Who's online" - and apart from me (and 1 guest) we have Yahoo spiders in 7 threads and MSN spiders in 1.

    Never knew we were so popular with "the bots".:wink:

    They are automated "bots" belonging to different search engines that scour the site for reference.

    At least, as a total "non computer geek" that's about the best way I can put it.:icon_roll
    If anyone has a better (or more accurate) explanation that that - please add it.:biggrin:
