the ones with a red thing around them are googlebots, what are they doing there?

Bouminok:
That isn't a bug... that's google spidering your site.

Yes but the pages it was on it shouldn't be able to get to.

It's not a bug though, googlebot is visiting the page after the admin has to determine what ad's it should show. Obviously googlebot will just see a go away message as it isnt an admin.

Gobalopper:
You have google ads so it will visit any page the ad shows up on.

You can edit your who.template file to identify those users as being googlebots.

SMterminator:
