Serendipity Forums

After implementing badbot trap in my s9y installation,
I've got quite a lot of bots tresspassing my trap.

Seems like the majority are using java User Agent in their browser,
anyone knows what kind of browser it is ?
Are they really spambots, or just another misbehaving crawler ?

Here's some :

Hi!

Hm, I've not heard of those bugs. The bots do seem like some kind of harvester or spidering page, though. With the IPs you get, can you check if the spider the whole other pages from you?

It might also be some java-based blogging application which your visitor(s) use?!

Best regards,

Well If I'm not mistaken,
those Java Apps usually just check all rdf / rss links ?

I explicitly put Disallow on it, in my robots.txt exclusions,
so those apps. are definitely doesn't obey it.

If they are just browsers, then I'm in jeopardy
