thanks.
I was just trying to figure out if this is another bot or someone dynamically reprocessing. If it's the latter, was going to have some fun with it.

Hi Roland,

No, and Yes.

No it is not part of the .NET Framework, just the standard Win32.

But yes, WinHttpRequest is the equivalent (more or less) of <@URL>. Someone
is probably using a custom built crawler on your website.

Under the .NET Framework there are several ways to do an <@URL> operation.
One of which is a base Class named HttpWebRequest, which is similar in
spelling but not the same thing.

Hope that helps.

Subject: Witango-Talk: is this the .net equiv of <@URL>?


I start to see bursts of hits from a client with the
signature of: Mozilla/4.0 (compatible; Win32;
WinHttp.WinHttpRequest.5) ;


I haven't noticed this before and google the client and it
appears to be a method for retrieving a web page for
processing. Is this the .NET equivalent of <@URL>?
