    We're sorry, due to the immense amount of traffic Flashkit receives, we've had to limit page views to 1 page per second, per user. Please wait a few seconds and try again.

    I'm not sure of all the purposes, but I know Google uses them to go through links on pages, to help index how popular a site is in certain areas, and that helps make it closer to first on its searches, etc. Otherwise, though, I have no idea.

    Web spiders basicly crawl sites for e-mail addresses and then signs the addresses up for spam. Look at TheEnigma's footer to see what I mean.

    The RIAA has spiders that hit FTP servers looking for MP3's too.

    Dirty bastards.
