Detect request is a Crawler / bot or End user request

Some project might store some information where is the request come.

This code snippet is show how you can determine the request is a crawler or not.

Code Behind 

   /// <summary>  
     /// Returns whether browsing device is search engine crawler (spider, bot).  
     /// </summary>      
     public bool IsCrawler()  
     {  
       if (HttpContext.Current != null)  
       {  
         HttpRequest currentRequest = HttpContext.Current.Request;  
         return (currentRequest.Browser != null) && currentRequest.Browser.Crawler;  
       }  
       return false;  
     }  

You can put this method under static class and call it from Global.asax file.
