It's a program that secretly looks at people's bots and when it sees a nice one it shouts 'Yahoo'! :wink:

Personally I've not had any 'Yahoos' yet, but I have had "There's a man with a harpoon looking for you" :D

When they're not hunting old whale erse above, bots, which are automated programs, trawl the web harvesting and indexing information for the various search engines. They're also known as spiders or crawlers.
