And you don't need to be scared of them, like half the blokes on here seem to be.
Sorry doesn’t help me...
Dozenmadda!
They go looking for pages to serve up to their users when their users search for stuff
So take the 3 Google webcrawlers currently shown as "spiders" - they list the pages that they find on this site so when someone goes into a Google search "45/70" the Google will serve them up a link to the discussion here about "45/70" calibre - and some ads as well cos that is how they make their money, they are an advertising company pretending to be a search engine
Hope that makes sense
i used to like spiders.
