Why my website has so many bots

My website is www.tuxedogamers.com

This is happening today the whole day, I usually have between 30 or 40 users at the same time but today I have had like 700 the whole day.

I know they are not real users because they dont register or post but how do I get rid of them?

pls

You need to update your spiders list with the one from my website, then see what type of bots they are.

It may take at least 15 minutes for the bot names to show up in the WOL though.

It likely means, Baidu found you.

The link is in my signature, and you just upload the file and overwrite the old one.

I updated my htaccess file and I don't see them any more.

OZZ why do I have to log in to get your spider file?

Because the file is only available to members. :)
