About 404s
Link for downloading this hack
It sounds like phpbb code. Perhaps some hack in hacklist does not have link to their site? I dunno.
Authors website
Sounds like game info page... I am not sure though, that should be checked..
N/A that one I know. If there's no (email or website?) specified for developer, it is shown as link to N/A.
questtracers.com
sounds like adverticement's tracing script.

And what comes to my healing.. I'm still 100% off. still a bit below 40 C fever... Every muscle hurts, and light makes my head hurt. Not to mention the feeling of world spinning when I get up...

What the heck?! Looks like a poem I wrote once...

It is in Pridys sig if I remember correctly...

And Maz dont you get out of bed one minute too soon... Whiskey kills of a lot of things, but it might cause even more hurting in body and more sensitivity to light...

Hurrah! No fever anymore. But I'm still a bit weak. No strenght to do the coding tonight... Anyways, I just wanted to say that I do still remember the bugs you found, so your testing was not for nothing

I hope I'll find some time and strenght at this week though

More Googlebot trivia, which queries are most often followed to our site!

this is different table as last time, that was how we were ranked on Google's index on certain query terms. People looking for these actually came here!

Just one question, korn lyrics?

I am thinking Hvem vil være millionær... (It is the Danish version of Who wants to be a millionaire. - The Danish forum have a thread called this. And the gameshow just restarted on Danish TV).

And I am guessing KORN LYRICS is due to the thread: "Guess the song" that died out almost a year ago or something...

I was going through the stats again today, and I noticed something that is quite disturbing...

during this month, this site has gone through 6,5 GB of traffic.
5,4 GB of traffic is through /viewtopic.php
at least 5,5 GB of traffic is used by IP-addresses 66.249.65.46, .42 and .20 - also known as Google.

do I read this correctly? Is there something so totally screwed up in our phpBB-system that Google goes through these pages like a maniac? If so, WTF?

edit: this is the case in all months, but I thought it was because of the "forerver calendar"-issue.

The issue is probably with Session IDs, take a look at
http://www.webmasterworld.com/forum30/30798.htm

Lose the session ID. It's generating an infinite number of URLs for google to spider.

Over 36% of our visits are from Google.

Ok I just looked it over and after spending the last half an hour trying to understand what, why and where I gave up. I think we should see what happens, and as soon as we decide what host we are going for I think we should decide wether or not we should do somethin drastical to get rid of it...

I edited sessions.php. If you'll have problems with staying logged in, please let me know. Also Zyxxer, could you check out if that helps with google bots.. I have no idea where you dig the stats up from O_o

Ho, someone googled Mirkomick? He's a member on OG but I didn't know that he was a member here

Site was awfully slow again the last two days. Very often I even had trouble reaching the site at all...

Maz · Post by **Maz** » Fri Mar 09, 2007 8:39

I hope the session edit I did helps. I assume following few days will show the truth about that

The traffic data I grab from surftown.dk, the webalizer(?) stats. Other stats i get from google's webmaster tools.

but hey, there must be something wrong when a bot uses 90% of our bandwidth and accounts for one third of our visits...

Is everything regarding this covered Maz? I read it over and found nothing that I didn't feel was fixed, but this last issue I think was fixed, but I wasn't sure enough to just close it up.
So any ideas wether this was fixed Maz or Zyx?

Maz · Post by **Maz** » Wed Apr 23, 2008 11:21

I guess session hack worked with google. But not with yahoo, cuill,... etc.

Post by **Zyx** » Wed Apr 23, 2008 19:30

Right now, the bots are loving the http://curlysworldoffreeware.com/viewonline.php -page. I don't know why, but this could be once again be added to the robots.txt, as the bots don't really need to go there.
