This bot/thingy has been on my site for 2 days now as a guest he is there 30+ times all day.

How do I search and see what it has indexed or does this take a long time?

When will the b@stard leave?

this is a good thing right?

You can view the Who's Online to see what they're currently checking out, and yes, this is usually a good thing (especially if it's Googlebots), but in this case, inktomisearch.com doesn't lead to anywhere for me, so they might use your board links for other uses besides simply indexing them.

Check this thread for a few ideas to stop them

I dont recomend stoping them, you will be robbing yourself of many hits.

The inktomi bots are owned by yahoo.com IIRC, yahoo is still using google to power its search engine..but with all the inktomi bots around now-a-days one can asume that this index is going to be very useful in the months and years to come.

It is not a VB3 engine, just a parsed copy!
