I'd love for this to be removed from the stats - it's really skewing them for my blog (which doesn't have that much traffic). For example, it now shows that 17.6% of my visitors have 800x600!</p> <p>Tagging the bot won't work because it shows up as a new visitor each time (often from a different IP address, and presumably using a different cookie).</p> <p>The bot also uses bogus referrers, and doesn't announce the fact it's a bot in the user agent. </p> http://www.woopra.com/forums/topic/livebot-shows-up-as-a-visitor#post-326 Sat, 26 Apr 2008 16:32:01 +0000 Johan 326@http://www.woopra.com/forums/ <p>But it makes the stats useless when it uses 800x600 resolution on Windows Server 2003 as i like to see what resolutions my visitors are using, and a bot doesn't see the site visually. </p> http://www.woopra.com/forums/topic/livebot-shows-up-as-a-visitor#post-316 Sat, 26 Apr 2008 15:25:18 +0000 John P. 316@http://www.woopra.com/forums/ <p>If Livebot is being shown, it's reading the javascript. Most bots won't execute js, so that is why they don't show up.</p> <p>Personally I think that is great. You can see how often it crawls the site. Next time you see it there, just tag it and you can keep track of it! :-)</p> <p>John </p> http://www.woopra.com/forums/topic/livebot-shows-up-as-a-visitor#post-277 Fri, 25 Apr 2008 14:16:49 +0000 Johan 277@http://www.woopra.com/forums/ <p>What i mean is that Woopra thinks Livebot is a person and shows it as a visitor instead of excluding it like Woopra does with Googlebot </p> http://www.woopra.com/forums/topic/livebot-shows-up-as-a-visitor#post-272 Fri, 25 Apr 2008 13:11:13 +0000 MrJef 272@http://www.woopra.com/forums/ <p>That is a good thing! That means the Live Search spider is crawling your site to add to the Live Search (http://www.live.com) index </p> http://www.woopra.com/forums/topic/livebot-shows-up-as-a-visitor#post-271 Fri, 25 Apr 2008 13:09:09 +0000 Johan 271@http://www.woopra.com/forums/ <p>Microsoft Live Search's Livebot shows up as a regular visitor on my site. </p>
