Rank: Member Joined: 8/25/2004(UTC) Posts: 69		I have what looks like Google crawling my site WWW.ACE4PARTS.COM From the error reports it looks like it has been going on for 3 days. I have maxed out at 100 event logs and they all look like this. Is to be expected or is there a problem?

Do your URL names include special characters such as "$%^&@#-'*"? Is the bot activity slowing down your site or negatively affecting your customers experience? If you clear the log, how often and how quickly does it repopulate? I am including a link to a website that discusses this issue, and I will continue with my research to see if there is a definitive solution. http://todotnet.com/archive/2006/07/01/7472.aspx Thank you, Everett

It does not seem to slow it down Site is too new to judge any bad customer experiance If I clear the log it will repopulate in 24 hours, maybe sooner I will clear it now and watch it closer.

The Google bot changed it's browser ID and is now known by Mozilla 5.0 which asp.net 2.0 incorrectly sends to an older HTML writer that doesn't handle rewritten URLs correctly. Okay, now the good news. There is an easy fix by creating an App_Browsers folder (if it doesn't exist) and putting the attached genericmozilla5.browser file into that folder. Now the errors should be gone and the Google bot will be happy. Note: This fix is included in the upcoming SP2 for BV Commerce 5 also. File Attachment(s): genericmozilla5.browser (2kb) downloaded 64 time(s). You cannot view/download attachments. Try to login or register.

Rank: Member Joined: 8/25/2004(UTC) Posts: 69		Marcus Thanks for the fix. Question, Is it critical where I place the folder, and what is the exact name I call the folder After I create and place the folder, I place the file in the folder, correct? Craig

Rank: Member Joined: 3/8/2007(UTC) Posts: 139		Hi Craig, The App_Browsers folder should be created one level under your site root, along side the App_Themes, App_Code and BIN folders. For example, if you were running a store on your local machine, and the store name was "teststore" the folder structure would look like this: C:\Inetpub\wwwroot\teststore\App_Browsers After the folder is created, place the file genericmozilla5.browser there. This should resolve your issue. Thank you, Everett
