They can attempt to do this - the spiders will attempt to access various parts of the website and index each page. What I imagine has happened, is that this particular spider has found the page that is loaded when a private message is sent, so the forum engine has detected it as 'sending message'.
Nothing to worry about - the red 'no entry' sign shows that the forum engine has intercepted and blocked the action.
/DISCLAIMER: I could be talking a load of twaddle, given my lack of Vbulletin knowledge.

nope you right on there Kieran.
Spiders will find all links, and access them (if they can)
