Hitbot Detecting Software
I am writing some scripts and one of them is to detect a hitbot on a TGP or any site for that matter. I am just wondering what people think is the best way to nail a hitbot/detect it?
The couple things i can think of are: 1) Roughly the same amount of time will laspe between requests. 2) Large volume of unique ips doing the exact same amount of hits. Lets hear some more suggestions. Joe |

All the stuff you want to check for can be adjusted by some creative hitbots... the best way to catch a hitbot is not to tell what you are going to look for... Never assume anything... I think you should just make a series of tests on the traffic and hope that one of your tests is one the hitbotter had not been prepared for.  |

Images can be protected with mod_rewrite, unless the program is spoofing the referring url, which some programs do do ;) |

If you make the script publicly available, it won't work.

i'm not much of a techie but if you can detect proxies like ProxyPass can wouldn't this be a big help in a hitbot detection script because hitbotters use proxies? So figure out a threshold number for proxies, if the number of proxies detected is above normal, good sign it's a hitbotter??

speaking of URL spoofers, anybody got any good ideas how to protect a leased plugin from these spoofer programs that spoof the referring URL of a valid customer? Not sure cookies will work any better because i think some of these programs also can accept a cookie. Has to be a good way to control access to a plugin other than requiring every user type in a username password combination.
