I noticed that we are getting a larger than normal number of visitors to the site. On checking the IP addresses, they seem to come from China.

These Chinese visitors all transition through the same internet provider at http://www.baidu.com/. Do you suppose they have us advertised on their site??

I believe they are a search engine Lou.

Something fishy going on.
(39) visitors of which (17) are looking at the same page which has not had a posting in months.
Methinks they're not really visitors at all....someone or something automatically "visiting".

I have noticed that many "visitors" are from China but also a fair size group from the USA. IP starting with 180 are Chinese. A few days ago we had over 20 from all over the States. Perhaps it is an automatic dialer of some sort looking for military secrets amongst our solids.

Since I don't write Chinese we may never know.

Hey Ray and Garet, is there any way of knowing how long these visitors actuality stay on the site?

Maybe we should put up some models of Chinese planes and see how that affects hits!

The IP addresses belong to Beijing Baidu, the largest Chinese language search engine. They are most likely indexing the site for search results.

Or getting ready to start spamming the site.

The spammers browsing habits were quite a bit different last time, so hopefully that isn't what is going on.
