i have always liked a few yahoo spiders on my site crawling... (at least when i learned they help with SEO's)... but this weekend, i was bombarded with 100 then 150... when i got up to 185 spiders, i knew that was a bit much... so now I'm asking, do i really want that uninvited intrusion on my site? even a good thing should have permission to be good...

my five-minute search lead me to making a robots.txt page..... i collected a few lines of disallow texts to block spiders... i dont know if this will work, but until someone smarter comes up with something better, i havent had a new spider since i uploaded this...
