After banning several variations on domains with poker in their name, I finally have these jerks at highprofitclub dot com showing up in my server logs ALL THE TIME. I can't ban them because the IP doesn't resolve. If you have any help, please let me know. This referrer spam pyramid is driving me nuts.

I am 8 hrs ahead of GMT so maybe look at the day before? That’s interesting that you don’t see that IP in your logs. I am 8 hrs ahead of GMT so maybe look at the day before?

But Yahoo has always left a bad taste in my mouth. If I tell it in robots.txt to not go trawling all over then it needs to respect that...it hasn't so that gets a bot banned no matter who it is. I'd use grep if I wreally needed to :) Remember OS X is nix based. But I have my workflow running nicely with BBedit. I don't like to live in the terminal too much :) I just don’t think the amount of crawling slurp does is justified. But Yahoo has always left a bad taste in my mouth.

But if you change your habits a little bit, then there's no need to ban them. Oh wait, you're on a Mac, aren't you... Quick, a grep type app for the Mac. Anyone?

It's just that Slurp is from Yahoo and you'd think they'd respect robots...but they aren't and it's literally everywhere. I like to give my logs a quick read through to see if anything unusual stands ot...but slurp is all I'm seeing. They're going to ge banned :) I just pull my raw logs throgh FTP and then run through them with ‘find all’ with BBedit.

And you can filter for the 403's as well. I wrote a post on that earlier, back on annelisabeth.com Ah, but if you download your logs and use TextHarvest, you can just filter it out.

Yahoo slurp is REALLY annoying me right now as it's ignoring robots and is all over my logs so it's gong to get banned because at the moment it is the main cause of difficulty in reading my raw logs...worse than the spammers...
