Yahoo Spiders

I've been putting a lot of effort into SEO the last few months and see many more spiders on my site, but for some reason Yahoo has many more crawling my site than other search engines. I see there are a lot of Yahoo's here too compared to other engines. Is there something that Yahoo doesn't differently? It probably doesn't matter, but I noticed, and was curious in any additional info members may offer on the topic.

I was just talking to 3 other people who say they are getting bombarded with yahoo slurp spider.

Yahoo loves me, I crawl lots and am ranked #1 for my favorite keyword. :)

This hits on one of my questions in another thread.

Does it matter what order your meta keywords are in?

Is your favorite the first one, or a personal preference?

wat are spiders?
how do u know u get them? sorry, im a beginner :(

Yep, I have always noticed Yahoo crawling more than others. I have lots of robots on my site at times. I can also say that I see them using much more of my bandwidth per month as well. Sometimes double of what Google uses.

But if I rank well then I don't mind that so much as the traffic will pay for the bandwidth.
