We were able to successfully do this by putting the loading of target within an if statement within custom code in DTM.  Thanks everybody for their help. if(!conditional_statement_of_known_bots){   big block of code that loads Target}

We have times when we do not want Target to fire, for instance when we have a known bot hitting our site.  We are using DTM and are able to abort the Analytics call based on url parameters.  Is there a way to do the same thing for Target?
