Stephen, The lines shows up in my log file like this:
24.91.142.87 - - [16/Aug/2003:00:21:32 -0400] "GET /category/Government_info HTTP/1.0" 200 14379 "http://powerreporting.com/" "CyberSpyder Link Test/2.1.18 ([EMAIL PROTECTED])" Do I need: BROWEXCLUDE CYBERSPYDER or BROWEXCLUDE CyberSpyder Link Test/2.1.18 or ?? The software help file says: The User-agent entry to be used for CyberSpyder Link Test is "cyberspyder". But "browexclude cyberspyder" doesn't keep these lines from showing up in analog. Is any of this case-sensitive?
