What are the best (if there are any) scripts for Automaitically and manually stopping Site sucking and Bots?

We currenlty run antihotlinking, Iprotect and proxypass for password protection, throttling and ip burst attacks but would like to complement them with another script that gives us a simple way to block domains by IP or url of certain sites, I know that I can block IP at the network level by adding the IP to the IPChains firewall rules, or by site in htaccess, but looking for a solution that monitors BOT activity and blocks them, or give us the option to while giving us a nice managment console I can train my people to look at and work with.

In the past I have used botbuster for this, but have not been able to reach them my email. Anyone know of a nice solution to this?

It would be great if someone could build a console that could consolidate all the information from these various scripts into one place... dream a little dream...


If anyone could help with ideas that would be great.

I don't think you can block manual wGet.

.htaccess is the best way to go about it. But if someone manually starts up the Download manager program they spoof the refferer and you can't block it.

Only other way I can think of is to generate a cookie that is required for all downloads.. or enter a code when entering the site to identify the user as a user.. as apposed to a bot.

Strongbox alledgly has a way to stop mass downloading and site suckers (assuming it's behind a protected area).

I've never looked too much into it but if you really need a solution...might be something for you.
