Yeah, when bots come to my site I see them tring to e-mail members, PM members, login, and I have even had some bots try to register. LOL...they must of liked my site.

Anywase, they can't send e-mails or anything that guests can't do. Because they are just like guests. Their not registered, therefore they will get the forbiden message when the try to access those pages. I like when bots visit though. it makes my member base go up, (since we're a new site) therefore, when real guests visit their more likely to sign up if they see 20 users online, even though their just bots
