quick question - being nosey ...
Could somebody tell me who MSN [Bot], Yahoo [Bot] and Google [Bot} are ...? Don't mean to pry, but are they our resident policemen? Not asking for names, but I always see at least one of them on patrol...

They're automatic servers run by Google, Microsoft & Yahoo for their search indexes. The "bots" sit on the forum and check for any changes, then update their related search engines accordingly.

Not sure I 'get' it, TC, but I understand now that they are not what I thought ... Thanks mate.
