Noticing this random IP address popping up in my 202 Spy View (8)
Noticing this random IP address popping up in my 202 Spy View
So basically, as the headline states, everytime I upload a new lander and do some testing on my system I'll see my IP address pop up in my Spy view... but I'll also notice this other strange IP right after me.
Apparently it's from JAPAN.
Am I being paranoid here?
IS IT YOU MR. GREEN?!?!?!?!
If you do a lookup does it come up with TREND MICRO INCORPORATED? I have ones from japan all the time and supposedly it's just like their software checking it out for virus' etc
edit - just checked my logs and this is an example of one I see "150.70.172.109"
.htaccess is you friend...... (apparently!). I say that, as I have no idea how to implement this, ... but you 'COULD' set it up in each campaign folder (or at the root) to just redirect it to google etc.
install a firewall (IpTables) using CSF to permament ban the IP
RewriteCond %{REMOTE_ADDR} ^123\.123\.123\.
RewriteRule ^index\.html$ special.page.html [R=301,L]
Add the above to your root htaccess to deny specific IPs, edit the IP above to suit.
You can also use:
<Limit GET POST>
order allow,deny
allow from all
deny from 123.123.123
</Limit>
its nothing....its just a bot.....part of a malware hunting system....
no worries....
Thanks for the answers guys! I figured it out. All good 
damn, I've been seeing those japan IP addresses for a while and have always been paranoid about them. I do mainly SEO though and would always see it pop up after a random new search phrase came in. This thread just gave me a tiny bit of relief! lol.
thanks
