I have never published my site, haven't promoted it in anyway. Yet sometimes when I log-on as Admin, there are 4 or 5 guests views foums/news etc.

Within seconds, they are gone Is it me, am I really that scary a guy.

Not My Breathe Then

Not sure how a Google Bot (or any other for that matter) would have found it's way to my site.

Any ideas on how best to kill any chance of a Bot searching my site...

ps. wonder if there is a way of tracing these IP addresses back to Google (or their source)

Another tip:

Install the Netquery module, and when you see those guests, click on more in the site info block, and you should see their IP's, copy and paste them into the Netquery form, and you should see if its a googlebot, yahoo, or whom ever...
