I just have a little something to add to this subject: I browsed the logs on two webservers I run, and this type of incident were present on both. On one of the servers there were a lot of requests for 2-3 domains, all having to do with sending SMS messages via the internet (to mobile phones), and on the other server there were all requests for porn sites. None of these servers runs or has ever run any site similar to those mentioned. Many of the requests come from the same client url, but this varies too. On server A where I get all the SMS related requests I never see any requests related to porn like I do on server B and the other way around. The two servers are located on different subnets and run completely different OS`es and web server software. The user agents used vary from IE to Netscape etc. I didnt see any UNIX yet though but that may be coincidental. I would like to see more postings on this subject, as this really bothers me (not finding this out =).
