    I have visited the site botsense.com and thought this was the least of effort i could put in to reduce the probability as much to my ability to save bandwith from bots that crawl my site.

    Only thing is that i haven't have any server administration expierence apart form ftp into my account and place/replace files. On the site of botsense it stated i had to place the generated htaccess file into my root as i did, but when running the test it failed and the url i entered was correct.

    Only thing i can think of is that i have to reconfigure one and another on the server after i informed with my host regarding the htaccess issue.
    They told me i had to deal with this myself since they are not involved with this, i have to configure it myself:confused: and after visiting the website of apache i'm still in the dark how to handle this situation.


    Where to start guys:confused:
    Thanks in advance:cool:
