I pulled this off my logs, is this a bot, or ??


64.246.161.30 - - [31/May/2004:03:33:49 -0500] "GET /robots.txt HTTP/1.1" 404 - "http://www.whois.sc/" "SurveyBot/2.3 (Whois Source)"
64.246.161.30 - - [31/May/2004:03:33:49 -0500] "GET / HTTP/1.1" 206 1662 "http://www.whois.sc/kave.org" "SurveyBot/2.3 (Whois Source)"


I had a folder on my domain that had a bunch of swf files in it, that I played with, as did some friends (yeti, ect), which got googled, and then ppl just poured in. Ended up moving files to a new location (passwd protected), and put up a why page where the files were. Ive been adding new re-directs for the files, and I saw the above listed in my raw logs, and here I am askin. =P

whois.sc is a lookup service for domain name registration ... enter "http://www.whois.sc/anydomain.com" in a browser and you get an image of the home page and the registration information from the domain name registration. Looks like they indexed your site, but they are well behaved and looked first for any kind of exclusion you put in ROBOTS.TXT.
