[support] excessive bandwith usage

[Skip Taylor]

Larry,

I had something similar happen. I wasn't warned by the hosting company, but
I did notice my bandwidth was way out of line.

My server log had grown to 300+MB and my bandwidth was at 2+GB.

It turned out that Google had used up 1.6GB bandwidth in that one month and
most of the log was the Googlebot having it's own party.

I wrote to them and asked them to look into it and it stopped.

Maybe it's something like this?

Regards,
Skip
