I've just noticed a strange behaviour when I was looking at my stats. Here's the story (not so exciting, so just relax):
I had an ad (http://webhostingtalk.com/showthread.php?t=491132) on the templates and graphics forum were I sold a simple css layout. This layout was hosted at one of my unused domains. The template got sold. Now when I was looking at the stats of that domain name for this month, I noticed the following odd behaviours:
- 118 visitors, of which 20 added the address to their favorites !? why, I'm wondering..
- ONE odd person did this (listed as 404 - document not found):

He tried every possible combination :) to find "hidden treasurs".. So much efforts and time he put in it! Now, why? what was he looking for?

Edit:
Just discovered a bug in WHT :)
I chose not to parse URLs when I first posted this thread, but when I wanted to edit, it was saved with parsed URLs. And there's not an option to uncheck "parse urls" when editing. Now, all links are clickable when i didn't want them to be :(

Probably were looking for the download of the site, or some other site to download so they could steal it.

Thanks bear for fixing it!
Probably were looking for the download of the site, or some other site to download so they could steal it.Yea, probably. But why the hard labour when he could've tested with a web downloader first?
And now I saw this too: /Psd/ 1 http://www.iewq.com/Psd.. :) sure, I got a lot of psds for you to downlod. Lol
