what the hell is a slurp spider i noticed when i had a peep to see whos online that this thing was looking at loads of threads

I'm not a mod, but I think slurp spider is yahoo's web crawler (crawls across the web from page to page indexing text to appear in its searches). That's a good thing to see

http://help.yahoo.com/l/us/yahoo/search/webcrawler/ - I think that's it? I didn't realise it would show up in the who's online though. That's pretty cool.

Zenarchy - you are spot on with this.

Chad - sorry, I was beaten to it by Zen.........

Yahoo! Slurp is Yahoo!'s web-indexing robot. The Yahoo! Slurp crawler collects documents from the Web to build a searchable index for search services using the Yahoo! Search engine. These documents are discovered and crawled because other web pages contain links directing to these documents.
