hi,

i noticed something weird on my site. y do search engines appear logged in as users, as u can see below. is that normal, or have i been hacked?

Who's Online
4 users active in the past 15 minutes (4 members, 0 of whom are invisible, and 0 guests).
MSN Search, 3_chains_of_gold, Bloodglitter, Princess, Zannalee

That's normal!

If you like to ban the MSN Search, look up his IP.
hi there destroyer,

no am just merely asking 4 an explanation. is it a web crawler or something?
Yes, it collects info for the msn searchbot.

It's like Google's GoogleBot. It collects info for http://search.msn.com

So that's kinda good for your forum, more publicity Smile
okay thats cool.

thanx a lot destroyer, sir Smile
