Google is Leeching Bandwidth!
Google is apparently the heaviest user of SpaceEmpires.net bandwidth thus far in November, using a whopping 3.49% all to itself!  Does it really Cache web sites so many times to use an insane amount of bandwidth in 18 days? |

Nah, Google is one of the best search engines out there. It is not bloated with junk on the page like Yahoo and MSN are. MSN's new search may be good when it is completed. MSN new beta search.

Re: Google is Leeching Bandwidth!
Google is NOT the devil!! Google makes MY internet what it is. "Instant access to Information"
I have the Google Toolbar installed and the entire world is a few keystrokes away.
Google Rules. Yahoo drooles.

Re: Google is Leeching Bandwidth!
Some people complained about searchbots, consuming their bandwidth. As I understand properly used robots.txt can prevent this.
