Hey,

Just an extra thought on top of the previous replies. If you wish to block
people bulk downloading, by adding a firewall rule. Perhaps the best thing
to do is not to block the ip but put a bandwidth limit on the ip address,
so your site just ends up appearing very very very slow if they try to
bulk download. That way they will probably not draw a link between the
Browser string, and a disconnectoin from the site (:

Regards,
 - jacob
