Sometimes checking the cached Google version gives some basic information without visiting an url. But when choosing 'Show Google's cache of www.eon8.com/' my Firefox says Transferring data from www.eon8.com... This is weird and not expected, because I have never visited this site. Cached version was saved on 22nd Jun. It shows Googlebot's IP at main page: IP: 66.249.66.207 User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (compatible; Googlebot/2.1; +http://www.google.com/bot.html) I.e. why there is traffic to eon8.com at all? - Juha-Matti
it happens because google doesn't cache the images, only the text therefore the standard cached page ending with "&strip=0" still contacts the page's server for the current images changing the value of strip to 1 means that you only access google and won't appear in the target webserver's logs this is all documented by Johnny Long at johnny.ihackstuff.com
