I've been trying to find out what User Agent string the MOSS Crawler uses when crawling http-sites. After writing a web app that logs HTTP_USER_AGENT and then crawling it to get ahold of the string. I figured there had to be a easier way. And there is. Check the registry on the index box and navigatie to:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Office Server\12.0\Search\Global\Gathering Manager
Check the string value for UserAgent: Mozilla/4.0 (compatible; MSIE 4.01; Windows NT; MS Search 5.0 Robot)
