My websites aren't widely relevant so I was a bit surprised to get a sharp complaint from PN saying that I had exceeded my traffic allowance by 7Mb (wow! - that must have really melted the servers). After a bit of webstat studying I noticed a steady rise in downloads from some commercial IP addresses and decided to add a robots file to the sites, and Lo and Behold my traffic has dropped back down to around a twentieth of the previous peak.
I've never bothered about this before, but I imagine that the increase in spiders and search engine activity must be becoming a substantial part of web traffic.
