This is interesting:
Microsoft's MSN Search Robot is a Guest and is writing a reply about Windows Security Integration....  Uh, I think there is a bug in the Active Users List.  ------------- http://www.wistex.com" rel="nofollow - WisTex Solutions http://www.caribbeanchoice.com/forums" rel="nofollow - CaribbeanChoice Forums |

This is not a bug or an error. This just means that the MSN Robot has followed a link to the 'Post Reply' page from a topic, but it won't actually be able to write the reply as it won't have permission. |

I know, but it sure did look silly. 
Since this type of thing can be detected (i.e. its obvious that a robot is not posting even if it is crawling that page), maybe it should say something other than posting.
Although it was quite amusing to see it.
 Maybe it should stay just for the amusement factor.
And for the record, there was a bug... a spider to be exact. hehe. ------------- http://www.wistex.com" rel="nofollow - WisTex Solutions http://www.caribbeanchoice.com/forums" rel="nofollow - CaribbeanChoice Forums |
