Preserved Topic: web site usage tracking...

hi again.. hehe.

i was just checking out my web site usage stats.. and there's a host that keeps showing up, like lots.

in the past week they've had 260 requests... i myself have had 121 and the next closest one is 41 requests in a week.

i only get unresolved dns entries and i tried to track it, but had no real luck... telusplanet.net // telus.net is the best i could do.

161.184.236.246 is the address, is something fishy going on or am i being paranoid? either way i'd like to know, i'm not familiar with this stuff and it seems interesting.

Well, seeing as how Telus is a Canadian company, based in the city I live in, providing the DSL line that I use, it's possible that all the people I've been referring to your site have been showing up, or all my surfing of it has been recorded. <img border=0 align=absmiddle src="http://www.ozones.com/forum/wink.gif">

If not, all I can say, after running a whois query through ARIN, is that it is local to my area (Edmonton, Alberta, Canada) and it doesn't an assigned DNS specifically.

Now that signature is special. You're showin yer age too there man.

peter: okay... so you look at my site more than twice as much as i do? weirdo, haha.

honestly the reason i brought it up was because i thought maybe someone was using my graphics on their site, but i guess not?

alright, i'm tired and need a shower.

Mikey...I dunno to be honest man. I was thinking about that hit count last night after posting, and it does seem...damned high.

Seeing as how there's no discernible DNS though, someone using your images would have to be using them locally on their terminal.

I'd find that a bit odd too. Maybe you just have a stalker in my neighbourhood. Lucky man...the stalkers around here are world class.


hehe

this has got to be the first time I have heard someone objecting to hits to their site! weirder things happen I guess! <img border=0 align=absmiddle src="http://www.ozones.com/forum/smile.gif">

I have a stalker at school.. and she's a pro.. LoL. Only a 2 hour 30 minute drive away from you, DG. Your stalkers are spreading across the province.

Gone now... I must of ruined it..

DOC!! What was goin on?

cheers.mikey.milker

I'm on to your little conspiracy. I will NOT go away!

- Dan... the spy -

Terrorist? [twiddles thumbs, looks innocent] I'm glad you missed the part where everyone who was *not* a Mad Scientist became a "Pretentious Asshole", heh heh. I was having a breakdown in my logical (perl, so not so logical) processes, decided to back off for a while and come back at it. Hacking UBB code, fun fun...

Your pal, -doc-

Actually, I did see that, but I only saw it with Mikey's name... which made sense. (I scrolled down to fast to read the new posts, so I missed everyones titles except first two, and last two.)

Well, as for the hits, the one thing that comes to my mind is that maybe someone spidered your site with a tool like webzip or Offline Explorer. That's how I reverse engineer some things. That might have caused a large amount of traffic coming from one location. I could demonstrate if you want to contact me offline.
