    Hi,

    I have noticed today that I'm getting traffic at one of my websites from these particular 2 referrals:

    • h ttp://67.192.42.5/tserve/trafficserver2.htm?h=672849a6ab95b5d65f1ad434f2ccd9fa&code=fc3e026aea94af17baffdea1d2f078fc
    • h ttp://67.192.42.2/tserve/trafficserver2.htm?h=672849a6ab95b5d65f1ad434f2ccd9fa&code=afdb0511170f22ea93c0aa982358e247

    Being that the last part is of course some session ID or something

    How can I block these referrals?

    I mean, how can I block everything coming from:
    • h ttp://67.192.42.5/
    • h ttp://67.192.42.2/

    Using HTACCESS please. :)

    Yes these are good ips to block as they are served on the users system by a virus that pops up new full browser windows, and they serve websites from various paid ad programs so you are being cheated out of ad money and the visitors and getting p o ed at your site for coming up in their browser and are real visitors.

    I don't think of it quite as a popup, as it is a full browser window, but is just as bad.

    definitely a good catch at noticing this.


    I am on the flip side trying to remove ips from my computer browser as a result of a virus.
