Hi Guys,
Was looking at our Analytics and it shows that there has been loads of visits to directories that don't actually exist, such as variations of '/html/5.' Some are visited many times.. are these bots just trying to find vulnerabilities? Should i be worried?
Cheers,
Rob

I will often find weird HTTP requests, but they usually include malicious query strings. Check your logs and see if it's something like:
http://yoursite.com/somescript.php?include=http://somemalicioussite/some...
If you find links like that in your log, it means that somebody is trying to find a remote script execution vulnerability. It's nothing to worry about as long as your code is secure and up to date.

that's basically a good tip from programmer on checking your log files. But I thought at first that when you said web log, it was blog...
Also check for frame use on site...
