This means the bot only sees links to a single page instead of multiple different ways to access that page.
Additionally, the file seo.php will redirect bots if they are trying to access a url that could lead to duplicate content. The redirection sends them a 301 redirect to just the plain product url without the extra flags. Same for categories/manufacturers.
Hope that answers your questions

Hi Intel,
Thanks for the quick answer
I thought that Google had some hidden bots that come in on different aliases so you couldnt track them? Im still a bit confused as to why you added these on but im known for being a bit simple!!!!
