[UPGRADE AVAIL.] Is my Performs component under attack??

Post by RJP » Fri Jul 14, 2006 10:19 am

Hi

Just noticed over the last few days in my log of latest visitors in cPanel there has been lots of these.... I'll put 2 examples...

**********

What are they? Are they dangerous attacks on my site? There has been maybe a hundred or possibly more of these single entries, with several different urls at the end...

Please help, am I in danger?
Thanks, Rikki

--- EDITED ---

Thank you for reporting this but pleae do not post such info up from your log files. If you are very concerned you may PM your logs files to robS who will try and take a look at it, thanks.
