Also found another set of false-positives:

Lots of new bots, including UptimeRobot suggested by @Nirjonadda. See FAQ for complete list of bots now detected.

New functionality: tool to test bot detection - paste in a user agent string and the tool will tell you if it detects a bot

New bots:

• TelegramBot (thanks @alsogamer )
• InternetNZ Webscan
• Microsoft WinHttp
• Microsoft Office (Excel / Word / etc)
• AspiegelBot (thanks @VersoBit )

Added an option to disable the display of robot statistics in sidebar widgets (which were added in v2.3.0 of this addon)

Click to expand...

• added curl as a robot
• show robots online in Members online and Online statistics widgets

v2.1.0 updates (unreleased)

• new bots added
• added tool to admin area to show list of bots
• tested with XenForo v2.1

v2.2.0 updates

• merge new bot array with core array rather than clobbering it

Same version, new addon_id.

If you already have v2.0.0 installed, there is no need to upgrade. There is no new functionality in v2.0.0a. New installations should use this v2.0.0a version to ensure compatibility with future releases.

Due to the change in addon_id, upgrading from v2.0.0 to v2.0.0a is not supported - but there is no data stored with this addon, so simply uninstalling v2.0.0 before installing v2.0.0a will be sufficient.
