>> ^lucky760: We've discovered it appears to be thanks to Googlebot. It seems angry and out to destroy Siftbot for some reason.
It's been hitting old sifty from many dozens of different IP addresses repeatedly every second and every once in a while siftbot gets knocked down for a minute and that's when the dreaded "An internal server error occurred" message appears.
We're not sure of the reason or exactly how to stop Googlebot at the moment, but we're working on it. If any electro-whiz gurus have any ideas, feel free to toss them in our direction.
Robots.txt but then VS won't be indexed. Can you contact Googlebot about this issue?

"this is a private video...". Since when is good old-fashioned copyright infringement a private matter?
