Except: - the referrer is a single-word search at search.live.com, e.g. http://search.live.com/results.aspx?q=marketing&mrt=en-us&FORM=LIVSOP - The client acts like a browser, in that it fetches CSS and JavaScript files as well as the primary page, and the User-Agent seems to be MSIE 7: "Mozilla/4.0 (compatible; MSIE 7.0; Windows NT 5.2; .NET CLR 1.1.4322)" Here is a complete sequence from my logs: 65.55.165.51 - - [20/Feb/2008:02:22:16 -0500] "GET /category/Web-Marketing/ HTTP/1.1" 200 15810 "http://search.live.com/results.aspx?q=marketing&mrt=en-us&FORM=LIVSOP"; "Mozilla/4.0 (compatible; MSIE 7.0; Windows NT 5.2; .NET CLR 1.1.4322)" 65.55.165.51 - - [20/Feb/2008:02:22:18 -0500] "GET /media/public/css/blogcosm.css HTTP/1.1" 200 8114 "http://blogcosm.com/category/Web-Marketing/"; "Mozilla/4.0 (compatible; MSIE 7.0; Windows NT 5.2; .NET CLR 1.1.4322)" 65.55.165.51 - - [20/Feb/2008:02:22:19 -0500] "GET /media/public/css/category_detail.css HTTP/1.1" 200 2952 "http://blogcosm.com/category/Web-Marketing/"; "Mozilla/4.0 (compatible; MSIE 7.0; Windows NT 5.2; .NET CLR 1.1.4322)" 65.55.165.51 - - [20/Feb/2008:02:22:19 -0500] "GET /media/public/css/toc.css HTTP/1.1" 200 399 "http://blogcosm.com/category/Web-Marketing/"; "Mozilla/4.0 (compatible; MSIE 7.0; Windows NT 5.2; .NET CLR 1.1.4322)" 65.55.165.51 - - [20/Feb/2008:02:22:19 -0500] "GET /media/public/css/one-liners.css HTTP/1.1" 200 223 "http://blogcosm.com/category/Web-Marketing/"; "Mozilla/4.0 (compatible; MSIE 7.0; Windows NT 5.2; .NET CLR 1.1.4322)" 65.55.165.51 - - [20/Feb/2008:02:22:19 -0500] "GET /css/colors.css HTTP/1.1" 200 4410 "http://blogcosm.com/category/Web-Marketing/"; "Mozilla/4.0 (compatible; MSIE 7.0; Windows NT 5.2; .NET CLR 1.1.4322)" I seem to have one of these roughly every 1/2 hour though the interval varies widely.
