It's the robot that saves archives of your pages for http://www.archive.org/, which is a site aiming to preserve "snapshots" of the web for posterity. If you aren't particularly interested in having it archive your website (reasons include not liking the idea generally, privacy concersn etc etc) you can keep it out with /robots.txt. Details are at http://www.archive.org/about/exclude.php Follow-ups to slug-chat please. -Mary -- SLUG - Sydney Linux User's Group - http://slug.org.au/ More Info: http://lists.slug.org.au/listinfo/slug
