Here's the reason given by the WebTrends Knowledge Base at
http://www.webtrends.com/support/Solution.asp?id=2572137713

Instances of Mozilla/8.0 as an agent have been found in different log
files. As a result, it was determined that this is referencing an
international institution of education. Some educational institutes have
customized the Netscape browser for themselves and they identified
version numbers that Netscape may not have previously used. 

Example:
