Over the past 2 weeks we've had 15 new bots cross our path.
In addition, our database grew by about a thousand new user agents.
Here's the bots of interest that showed up:
-
Robozilla/1.0 stomped through our logs, toppling buildings and leaving debris in its path

-
In a crafty attempt to get a free linkin to their site,
Forex Trading Network Organization
left it's mark on our logs with embedded HTML to try and force us to link to them. Luckily, our site escapes HTML tags with proper encoding, so the plot was foiled.
But seriously, nice try - I'm sure it will work on lots of other sites.
