We have enabled the option to have 404 requests automatically emailed
to admins. It works well, but sometimes we get strange reports like
this:
Referrer: http://ourdomain.edu/forums/software/
Requested URL: /forums/software/
User agent: Mozilla/4.0 (compatible; MSIE 6.0; Windows NT 5.0)
IP address: 94.29.103.134
What's strange about it is that the referring URL http://ourdomain.edu/forums/software/
*does not exist* - we removed it more than a year ago. So I can see
why the requested URL is 404, but don't understand how a non-existent
URL can be considered to be the referrer. Is this evidence of some
kind of bot activity that fakes the referrer?
Anyone seeing anything similar?
