Why would they read it if they we're going to just ignore it, perhaps your robots.txt is broken? Hint, it is, in 2 or 3 different ways I can see (if it's http://geneslinuxbox.net:6309/robots.txt we're talking about). That file doesn't have any syntactically correct entry in there for blocking that bot. I don't know why you seem set on blaming malice on part of a bot whose front web page has sections like: How can I block MJ12bot? How can I slow down MJ12bot? What commands in robots.txt does MJ12bot support? Why did my robots.txt block not work on MJ12bot? The URL for that page is in the user-agent string from the log snippet you posted above. -- Tixy
