[analog-help] browser

[John Swarbrick]

Hi,

  Although Lynx is mainly used for web browsing on Unix platforms, it
has a mirroring mode which can spider or download an entire site. You
could be seeing either of these options when you see Lynx in your web
stats; the giveaway is how many pages were served to Lynx - if the value
is high, then it might show crawling activity.
