What was they looking for?


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 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

Yea, probably. But why the hard labour when he could've tested with a web downloader first?
