Brad, I like to check and see who's online occasionally. I see Google Adsense Spider and Yahoo! Slurp Spider on there. Are these the bad guys here to do harm to us or the site???

Nah RCS, those spiders are useful to the site. They crawl the site to gather information for their search enigines, and to help display relevant Google and Yahoo ads on the site.

They are definitly good for the website, I can hide them from displaying in 'Who's Online' .. but I like to see how often they are indexing.
