Random HTTP-Requests

Hi there,

I've noticed that some weird requests are showing up in the error logs
of one of my apache webservers.
The requests seem to have the following in common:

* GET Request on some random alphanumeric string like "GET /hDMe9NS"
* Referer has some randomized, invalid URL like
http://www.kSJn32.com/ckJMSC/kSMSR/mndm/sads.html

Every domain that showed up wasn't registered - no DNS reply or whatsoever.


Here's an example out of my Log file ( I slightly modified the random
strings - just in case ;))

[Tue Mar 30 10:12:41 2009] [error] [client 124.236.*.*] File does not
exist: /var/www/foo.bar/web/hFBeX7EK, referer:
http://www.ruyidqpg.com/SJQubgQP/QenlI/_n2Pn/_px/Uph/wSBf_l/leJB/C8Y00EIPfD07U/AO8lnzhgAl/SD70gA8Jg/nfA013J/ZOWAgYCZ/DOf7hg.html

The amount of random directories isn't constant.

Any Ideas what is causing these requests? Is it a well known worm?
What could it be.. what for..?
The Server is Running Apache with PHP, the main application is made
with the symfony framework.

Thanks, Regards
