[Xitami] Unsolicited HTTP GET requests in access.log

[jglong3 at att.net]

Hello Magnus .....   :) :)

THANKS for your Reply!!!!

OK and that's what I thought,,,,,,,the error logs I still have show these events do not relate to any Xitmi crashes or Denial of Service. In these cases it seems that these GET Requests are "FISHING" exercises and present no problems. 

The McAfee situation is reported by Internet Security Systems at:

            http://xforce.iss.net/xforce/xfdb/11559

This is what raised my suspicion related to GET requests and Xitami. What I have seen in the log files shows Xitami processed these without any problem.

THANKS for your time, help, and advise!!!!!
