Google screws up my "Products Viewed" report

Finally google stopped by, which is great because now hopefully the products in my shop will be found much easier. But now my Products Viewed report suddenly showed an increase of 10x per product within 2 days. I was positively shocked when I saw the increase but then I realized it was Google.

 

Any suggestions or solutions to have both, google visit you and have accurate reports?

Look at the log functionality.

Match googles ip range and tell it to only log if

$_SERVER['REMOTE_ADDRESS'] != $crawliprange

 

You should rip off the last 3 digits of REMOTE_ADDRESS and use that,

but you get the idea.

Thanks for your reply. I am just a beginner. Is this a OSC setting or a server setting? I could not find it in the OSC files. Else I have to ask my host to take care of it.
