- <P><B>Ignore Requests Containing</B><HR></P>
- <P>When Robot-Manager analyzes your log file, certain assumptions are made as
- to which log entries are spider requests. Using this dialog box, you can tell
- Robot-Manager to skip certain entries that contain specific text. For
- instance, most Web Browsers identify themselves as Mozilla in the User-Agent
- field of the log file. Therefore, you don't want to pick up entries that
- contain this text, otherwise users that visit your web site and look at your
- robots.txt file would be considered a spider.</P>

- <B>1.</B> Too many items in the list will slow down the parsing of the log file
- for spider visits.
- <BR>
- <B>2.</B> Do not enter text that could be found as part of a real spider visit.
- (i.e., a number or a short run of text like "bug" or "dog".)

- <B>3.</B> Text entered here is case sensitive!</P>
