Hello,

I have a question about a "guest" that was looking at my profile. It was a livebot.

Here is the info I received by doing an IP addy check.

I've had googlebots looking at main pages, but I've never seen this one before. It was "looking" at my profile.

Can a regular person doing a "check" get this information, or is this simply nothing to worry about.

I don't think it's something to worry about.

Thank you. I didn't think it was but just wanted to be sure.

I know that security is a big issue with the bb team, and they have a wonderful program.

By default, search engine spiders (the one you mentioned in your first post is probably the spider for MSN Search) are considered to be in the same group as guests, that is, whatever normal guests can see on the forum the search engine spiders can see.
