What is a Google Spider?

Saw this while looking at the Currently Active Users: 03:16 PM Google Spider Viewing User Profile

Any ideas what it is?

A spider is the name of the program the search engines use to crawl the web and index new pages. I don't know why it would show up in the online users list unless someone registered an account with that name.

Nope, it's not a user name...

I don't think it was a registered account. It was lumped in with the "guests" and you couldn't click on it, like you can one of the other members' names.

Apparently this is a new feature of vbulletin 3.0: http://www.vbulletin.com/forum/showt...=google+spider

It's a spider with 8.0 × 10¹⁰⁰ legs.
