Awstats showing that an "example-print.htm" is the most popular page on my domain?

    Hi there,

    On one of my friends domains in the AWstats on the webhost cPanel its showing that the most popular page is called "example-print.htm" but when I try opening the page it just takes me to a blank page on the domain with the text:

    "No input file specified."

    (http://the-biomatrix.net/example-print.htm)

    Any idea what/why this is?

    I was expecting the index.htm file to be the most popular file... but it doesn't even appear on the top25 pages list...


    Thanks for any help

    it could be that there are some other popular page or pages on your web site that take some POST parameters and when there are none they redirect to example-print? Some counters may attempt to crawl your website to determine the page title to show in stats, and when they do not provide correct POST data they retreive some default error page instead.
    just guessing...
