I looked around a bit and discovered some legacy code assigning
userreference, That's the culprit.

HI,

 

Just thought I would resurrect this thread. A few developers mentioned they
are seeing the same thing. I was looking at a Witango log and discovered the
following.

How are these guys creating a (I assume) userreferencekey equal to their
url? Is this a problem?

 

Just curious. Maybe worried!

Hi,

 

Here is a sample of urls that are being submitted to some of my sites. They
are reported as errors as I'm using Scott's error reporting routine.

I checked the ip address and they are coming from Amsterdam. Does this look
like possible "cross-scripting" attempts or some other "hack" on their part?

 

Some time back I had to resort to white-listing ip addresses on my ftp
servers as brute force account and password attacks were originating from
Amsterdam.

 

Thanks

 

Steve Fogelson
