At any rate, in addition to the response given by the experienced programmer above, I would add the human element. What kind of person would use the word spam in naming something? Almost certainly not a real spammer! That person would hide their purpose with some obscure name. Instead I think it highly likely you have found the work of a test person who has created a series of tests focused on product protection from various spam scenarios. The tester would create a series of test actions and give the group a handy self-decriptive name (at least meaningful to the author) - much as you surmised. What I don’t understand is what you mean by “spam-related searches”. You know what you were doing, but we don’t. In what context were you searching, and with what tool, so that you got back these hits? Why were you suprised?
