Odd site showing up in my webstats

[Gordy]

Ok I've just been looking at my webstats for my website and I've noticed the following site/user has been visiting my site

zeus.sitehostingusa.net
With stats as follows
Hits 14170
Files 14170
KBytes 112313
Visits 0

He/She/It has appear as the number one user of my bandwidth over the last two months. Yet if I try to load their site www.sitehostingusa.net I get

"There is no website configured at this address.


You are seeing this page because there is nothing configured for the site you have requested. If you think you are seeing this page in error, please contact the site administrator or datacenter responsible for this site."

Any ideas how this person can not visit my site yet download 112mb of stuff??

Something looks odd

Found this site on google

http://uzix.sourceforge.net/uzix1.0/...ge=www&lang=us

Looks like its some kind of wierd browser??

www.sitehostingusa.net = https://www.sitehosting.com.br

The 'There is no website configured at this address' is normaly when a account has had its DNS removed in WHM (web host manager)

Have you checked what files it has been downloading?

The stats program doesnt show that unfortunatly Without looking at the raw logs that is.

Its bizzare that a site can show in the stats like that. The fact the owner is based in brazil makes me suspicious

It is very confusing, bandwidth being used and the recever being a website would point towards some sort of proxy or online download manager.

Don't 34sp have cpanel with webalizer or awstats?, maybe a idea to install webalizer http://www.webalizer.com incase it happens again

[Gordy]

Yeah the stats program they have is poor , its been on my to do list to sort for a while. The main problem is that it includes your own site in the stats so the refferer stuffs is always out.

Looking at the link on google I posted above it appears that server could be used as part of a browser which has servers doing the processing of content and taking it from the end user which could explain it. However I can't imagine why someone would view my site with such a browser particularly so much and two months running.

I was only look at the stats in such detail as I'm 3 gig over my 3 gig data transfer limit hehe

Ah might have discovered what is going on

I did a whois on the domain and founds its ip address
http://whois.webhosting.info/sitehostingusa.net

Doing a whois on the ip I get 50 odd sites http://whois.webhosting.info/63.246.153.24
A couple of which I post on, it looks like its just the stats program playing up.

So it could be images ect you posted yourself using the bandwidth

[Gordy]

Well yeah I knew that I just wondering who used 112mb of my bandwidth
