oh i forgot to say! my html_output.php already has this code:

[code]

// Add spider stopper code 
    $spiders = array("almaden.ibm.com", "appie 1.1", "asterias2.0", "augurfind", "baiduspider", "bannana_bot", "bdcindexer", "docomo", "fast-webcrawler", "frooglebot", "geobot", "googlebot", "henrythemiragorobot", "infoseek", "sidewinder", "lachesis", "mercator", "moget/1.0", "nationaldirectory-webspider", "naverrobot", "ncsa beta", "netresearchserver", "ng/1.0", "osis-project", "polybot", "pompos", "scooter", "seventwentyfour", "slurp/si", "[email protected]", "steeler/1.3", "szukacz", "teoma", "turnitinbot", "vagabondo", "w3c_validator", "zao/0", "zyborg/1.0"); 
       foreach($spiders as $Val) { 
           if (ereg($Val, strtolower($_SERVER["HTTP_USER_AGENT"]))) { 
               // Edit out one of these as necessary depending upon your version of html_output.php 
               //$sess = NULL; 
               $sid = NULL; 
               break; 
           } 
       } 
// End spider stopper code

[/code]

Should this be replaced with the code stated previously?
