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?

Thanks,

Bill

What's the robot's User-Agent string? That's what you've got to exclude.
