There are user agent lists out there http://www.psychedelix.com/agents1.html for example.
You could run a report later and go against a table of useragents -----Original Message----- From: Claude Schneegans [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Sunday, October 30, 2005 5:15 PM To: CF-Talk Subject: Re: How to recognize robots >>The good ones identify themselves. Ok, and how do they do that? If a series of page requests from the same agent/ip is showing a different cfid/cftoken per request, then either its a user that does not support cookies (even session ones) or its a bot. Well, actually not really easy to implement ;-/ The reason I ask, is that I just implemented some statistics facility on some of my customers sites. This will count all hits, including those from robots, so I'd like to be able to discriminates visitors hits from others. Thanks. -- _______________________________________ REUSE CODE!
