I have even resisted putting the thing in a 'robots.txt' file because the search engines would find it then.

Now have y'all seen the Firefox Add-ons? I was thinking of writing one that would make the searches originate with the user. In that case, yeah, I would do it because it would be originating from you guys and from varying IPs and that wouldn't flag anything.

Hope that makes sense.

Makes total sense to me. That would be a sweet plug in! Let us know when you write it.
