I have been using WebKnight as an add on ISAP filter to the firewall built into Cisco for all of my Web servers. It's free and gives you great protection against rogue bots and SQL injection along with a host of other stuff including header and referrer checks, ability to set crawl rates, ip/domain name black and white lists, character rejections (in url and headers), along with much more. It is very much like URL Scan, only much more robust. Granted, it's for IIS, but a very handy tool to have. A couple of my sites were getting pounded by bad bots and they were sucking up CPU like you wouldn't believe, espcecially on sites that used queries and such. This tool has cut all of the crap out of my logfiles and since it runs as a DLL and an ISAPI filter, it has a very small footprint on the server. Easy to set up and maintain and it spits out its own log files so you adjust it as necessary.
