This is peculiar! I was looking at my stats just for kicks and saw this rather surprising spate of hots on my index page.

Aug 24 at
12:02 Switzerland (Bluewin Is An Lir And Isp In Switzerland)
12:04 Berlin, Germany (Telefonica Deutschland Gmbh)
12:15 Dublin, Ireland (Vade Internet Solutions)
12:17 Quebec Montreal, Canada (Cablevision Of Payson)
France (Ovh Sas)
12:18 Germany (Kabel Baden-wuerttemberg Gmbh & Co. Kg)

Then, at 12:27

Germany— (Martin-luther-universitaet Halle-wittenberg)
5 different IP addresses just a few seconds apart
France (Dynamic Pools)
Germany (Deutsche Telekom Ag)
Italy (Telecom Italia S.p.a. Tin Easy Lite)
UK (Avatarbroadband)
Dublin, Ireland (Magnetnetworks)
Ile-de-france, Paris (Dynamic Pools)
UK (European Regional Registry)
Germany (Bt De Housing Customer Range)

All this activity occurred between
12:27:20 PM
and
12:27:53 PM

All these were minuscule hits to my index page. Anybody else ever seen this?

Not European but my site's been regularly hammered by China since last year.

I've gotten a ton of hits from Brazil. No idea why.

spammers and bots. They can route thru servers all over. I have a form on my site and I regularly get it filled out with gobbly gook

Check your "Pages Not Found" and "Referring Sites Search" stats to see if someone has tried to access your site

reverse lookup the IP addresses. My guess would be bots happily indexing your site.
