360Spider

360Spider is the search index crawler run by Qihoo 360: 360 Search. Its operator publishes no IP ranges or DNS names for it, so a request carrying this name cannot be verified. Treat the name in a log line as a claim.

Add a group that names it: "User-agent: 360Spider" followed by "Disallow: /". A crawler follows only the most specific group that names it, so once a group names 360Spider, rules under "User-agent: *" no longer apply to it; repeat in that group any Disallow lines you still want.

What blocking it changes

No. It indexes for a regional search engine; allowing it matters only if you serve that market.
