Hi all,

Just to warn you - I have been picking up some pretty strange hits on my
website tracker from web searches that seem to be about our bots.

I have recently seen queries such as 'hack magsbot' and 'xelagot localhost'.
The latest 'hack magsbot' came from a firefox user.

IP Address: 65.41.4*.***
Country: United States
Region: Pennsylvania
City: Hanover
ISP: Sprint Dsl Network

Smells like someone trying to get into a uni running on the local IP.

What makes me wonder is why somone would need to google localhost, I mean
even if they wanted to it doesn't take a rocket scientist to enter localhost
in the universe host box, Plus do people really think that applications for
AW would have pages on how to hack them? I mean ok you'll get pages telling
you how to hack windows but windows has a bit of a larger user base then AW.

The other thing that I wonder is how come the words localhost and hack seem
to bring up your page in the search results strike ;)

So what does this mean for us normal bot users SR? I know you said bot
producers but how could this effect just a normal bot user?

Nothing at all really, this is just a newsgroup for actual sdk coders.
