I’m getting a few hits from someone with this user agent: JACK-O`-LANTERN/1.1

I’ve googled it and came and found nothing… Does anyone know who’s using this?

    Jack-o’-lantern is a pumpkin used in Halloween day. It’s possible to change user agent to something that you want. It’s possible that this user likes that personage and use it in his user agent, who knows
