These are the ones I wonder about. I get all of these and more – One, Unknown robot (identified by ‘crawl’) has incredible spidering activity on my site: 811+97 14.30 MB, almost as much as the big search engines . Wonder what they are?

Could they be from SEO pages, where people are searching your site, looking for clues to success, examining backlinks?

Are they legitimate search engine robots?

I find them worrying because they don’t identify themselves.
