How to Block SpyderMate SEO Tool

Trapped another SEO tool called SpyderMate that crawls your site analyzing data.

Nothing wrong with using it but don't let competitors get a free ride analyzing your site.

The spider details:

208.78.98.236 [208-78-98-236.slicehost.net.]
"MentorMate Spider"


Their host:
OrgName: Slicehost LLC
OrgID: SLICE
NetRange: 208.78.96.0 - 208.78.103.255
CIDR: 208.78.96.0/21

They just keep coming and eventually they'll run out of data centers we haven't blocked!
