    I've just checked the spider log on one of my sites, and found this strange little critter in there:

    ConveraCrawler/0.4
    IP 63.241.61.8

    It's been crawling through a couple of houndred pages today.

    The only info I can find about this one is this:
    http://www.convera.com/Products/

    Any idea what it collects the data for??

    I got crawled today by the same bot... Never heard of it so after a little search I found it was from a company that sold data to other websites to use as search engine db... Something like that...

    Look at the Adsense ads above, it is enterprise search software that large companies use to create their own search indexes from the net.

    The above page may help you understand what enterprise search is.
