Hi,
My Zope server 2.5.1 (Win32) was crashed and was 3 days out after receive following hit:
192.168.1.200 - Anonymous [31/Dec/2002:06:42:56 +0200] "GET / HTTP/1.1" 200 1584 "" "Microsoft URL Control - 6.00.8169"
(IP address is from our POUND proxy)
Microsoft URL Control is known as something about spam agent/worm/virus for FormMail.pl (as say googled search).
I dont know exactly time whem my zope fails, but after that log message was nothing until I was restart Zope service.
It is security issue or it is another reason?
Can't help you with your zope, but most of what you find on google about that client string is pure bullshit. This string is (was?) sent by some microsoft control (in the meaning of activex _control_) which can be used implement ftp and http transfers. So the RIAA, Spammers or people with do-it-yourself-crawlers which are all said to cause this string have just one thing in common: they probably paid too much money for some trivial VB tool which aids them in their ... uuhm ... work. cheers, oliver
