It's not a issue really as it's not eating much bandwidth or loading my web site significantly but I was just wondering if anyone knows whether it's a well know security weakness in gallery2 or what? Or is someone just very desperate to look at the pictures on Mandy's blog? :-)
I find that the google webcrawler bot, and a few others, keep hitting a url once they find it even though it may be long gone and now gives a 404. The bots seem unable to take the hint.
