    The Behavior of the Yahoo! Bots - Part II - things of sorts
    May 15th, 2006 02:10

    [...] This one is new to me. It looks likes a bot: no referring links, same IP address for each request (rdev25.yst.corp.yahoo.com), and, requesting only a single page off this blog. Others have observed identical behavior (see yeraze.com, The Hive Archive, and Ham Radio Blog). It hasn’t done anything particularly annoying (or useful, for that matter) so far, but we should keep an eye on it for future reference. [...]

    Actually, today i saw this user-agent in my logs. I have no idea what it does, but it seems to crawl fresh urls and yes, it tries do download the same file over and over again (btw, the IP is 72.30.61.76).

    It is definitely a bot in beta status. I have observerd that Yahoo! is mixing the IPs of the “normal” Slurp and the Verifier. So I guess one has to use the IP to identify the development bot.

    I still get visits of the Verifier but I have not checked whether it contributes to the index or not.
