the only real way to do it is to block out useless ranges....i.e. 202, 213, etc. but today even useless traffic even has a value

infact if i remember correctly the tgp guys were laughin it up when i made my blacklist....saying even hitbot traffic had a value : )
agrred plus its too time consuming to worry about this shit on a day to day basis.... b/w and servers are cheap enough today to just let it flow....
