Publishing a teletext in Internet

(Publicando un teletexto en Internet)

In my last project I have published in Internet the teletext of two of the most important Spanish television channels. The project was based on .Net technology and Sysmedia PLANET Web Gateway, which provides the automatic publishing of teletext services to the web, exporting the teletext to GIF or XML files.

Those channels are:
Telecinco teletext
TeleMadrid teletext

Strange strings in user agents

(Cadenas extrañas en los user agents)

Seeing the logs of an IIS server, I have found a lot of user agents with very strange strings added to the normal user agent string.

For example:

Mozilla/4.0 (compatible; MSIE 6.0; Windows NT 5.0; ESB{A8417D9D-5087-4807-9D73-9E09290256CD})
Mozilla/4.0+(compatible;+MSIE+5.5;+Windows+NT+4.0;+H010818)
Mozilla/3.0 (compatible; HP Web PrintSmart 04b0 1.0.1.34)
Mozilla/4.5 (compatible; HTTrack 3.0x; Windows 98)

Searching in google, I found this web http://www.zytrax.com/tech/web/browser_ids.htm#mystery.

Most of them are Browser Help Objects and other are spyware
