I never looked before but it is also getting through on my site.

Baidu has kissed my "gluteus maximus" for almost 2 years and change if not more ... So has Yandex and a handful of others as well ... I must have a "magic" forum :)

I am re working a couple of things, and then need to test further, I can then share my findings with Simon. :)

I would be happy to test on my site if it helps the community.

I don't wanna flap it, already flapped too much. But I am pretty sure the problem is solved.

I need a snapshot of your settings for the mod as there is no way all those being entered in the mod would get past the mod!

This is a snapshot of the spiders that are showing up in the whos online:
