There are more of these [bot]'s, also known as Web Crawlers, usually used to help providing up to date data for search engines.

@Ayas: What you are referring to is called a Spambot, a program designed for collecting e-mail addresses for sending spammail.

Those bots look on the forums for use full information that can be used in their keywords for using their search engines.

If we make a topic about Guide PK2 edit. And someone in Yahoo search thingy or Google and they will write " Guide PK2 " And then those sites will remember the post that has been made here and put it up in the list.

Those bots just look for information for in the search engines :)
