ABC Interactive also maintains a pretty extensive list that
can be found at the following URL (last updated January 26,
1999):
http://www.abcinteractiveaudits.com/guide/robots.html
We've accumulated this list of robots (separated between
commercial and personal) while conducting more than 1,900
website audits, on more than 100 different websites, since
the launch of our audit service back in June, 1996.
ABC Interactive is the interactive auditing unit of the
Audit Bureau of Circulations (ABC), which has gained a
trusted reputation independently auditing print media since
1914. ABC Interactive audits Web sites, search engines,
e-mail delivery systems, chat rooms and Internet
broadcasters; is a charter member of the IAB; and works
actively with the IAB and CASIE to assist the evolution of
online standards.
