I'm a bot in top stats

Any idea why top stats is picking me up as a bot ?

Would it have any thing to do with my isp being in the bot list ? my isp have a few bots that follow there customers around and scan the sites we visit and if the site we visit gets flagged by the bot we get a warning in our isp account informing us of a bad site we visited

make sense ?

Open functions_top_stats.php and find:

Code: Select all

FROM ' . USERS_TABLE . ' WHERE user_inactive_time = 0 AND user_ip = 0

Replace with:

Code: Select all

FROM ' . USERS_TABLE . ' WHERE user_type = ' . USER_IGNORE . '

That seems to have worked (so far) i had a feeling it was the bot entry i had placed in the spider's section as there is no such thing as a talktalk bot

as such so i have a funny looking Agent match in place hence i thought it was also picking up me.

Or maybe your system is so clever it detected you as a spambot
