Thanks to all of you for replying.

This log file is getting weirder. Here are more strange entries:

2004-10-26 01:04:22 202.38.216.127 - W3SVC1 FILESERVER xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx 80 GET
/scripts/nsiislog.dll - 401 5 0 - - -
2004-10-26 02:54:32 130.235.160.66 - W3SVC1 FILESERVER xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx 80 GET
/M83A - 401 5 0 - - -
2004-10-26 02:54:32 130.235.160.66 - W3SVC1 FILESERVER xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx 80
PROPFIND / - 401 5 15 - TEST -
2004-10-26 02:54:33 130.235.160.66 - W3SVC1 FILESERVER xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx 80 GET
/scripts/nsiislog.dll - 401 5 0 xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx - -

I am located in the ass of the world (South America) and I don't understand why
some chinesse and sweden people should be interested on my net? (those IPs are
from that places)

Like you say, the 401 code means an authorization failure, but, what is they
trying to do?

Thanks in advance...
