Robots is the term used for background programs that automatically browse and index web pages. They are used by search engines such as Google, Yahoo etc, to ensure that when you do a web search they will return up to date information. A regularly updated bulletin board or news site will be constantly checked by the "robots". That is my understanding, though I am sure there is a lot more to it than that.
