Something like this, I think:
"BecomeBot/2.||BecomeBot/2.0beta||SEARCH ENGINE SPIDER"
It should be added after the last line of spiders/bots. Don't forget to add & vbcrlf & _ to the previous last line. |

A web spider does only one thing, it visits web-sites and gathers information. This information can then be included in a search engine, for example.
And yes, it is normal to be visited by one, especially if there are links to your site on other websites, or if you have submitted your site to a search engine. |

| yup, they are real UA from folks/spiders who don't want us to know what they are using/who they are. |

you are not really meant to get them, the way the mod was set up it emailed me, I then added them to the master list but since aspwiz is AFK for sometime now I'm not able to add any new UAs.
TBH I would just delete the random one UA emails that you got, I'll ask folks to email them to me once I get access to update the master list. |

| yes it is, but if you look at the code it only uses the UAs listed there if the masterlist on aspwiz's site is offline. |
