I did send a copy to [EMAIL PROTECTED] along with a copy of the access log files. I 
also blocked access from the entire "c" block and am getting a whole flurry of 
attempts from all kinds of ip's within that block. I also took a look at the website 
(www.openfind.com.tw) but the entire thing is in Chinese. Why would XO be doing a 
spider job on my website for a Chinese company?
