    Hey all,

    Something from 68.142.250.112 has unleashed 100's of visitors to my site. I suspect something fishy. How do i learn more info the IP (server location, etc)?

    I banned the IP for now until I learn more...


    Thanks
    James

    The address is registered to Inktomi Corporation, though. Make sure you are not blocking their crawler.

    Using this lookup tool it appears to be Inktomi/Yahoo!
