I have a site, the url is : http://www.enterfun.com Today when I checked my site statistics, I found some strange things. I found lots of referrers like this: http://enterfun.com/~unlimite/ http://enterfun.com/~vietcon/diagram.php http://enterfun.com/~synsai/index.php http://enterfun.com/~kelsea/ http://enterfun.com/~unlimite/phpSuExec/install1.php http://www.enterfun.com/~jfphotos/ OMG, there are tons of them. And they are actually visitable when you click on them. I didn't upload any of those files into my server. And when I logon to FTP, I didn't find any relative folders or files either. What is going on? Thanks in advance.
Your server has virtual directory listing support set to on..so people can reach other's pages by appening their account userid to your domain (IP).
Oh i see. I thought my server had been hacked or something. so those files are actually not on my server. Will they use my bandwide when people visit those sites? I found that my alexa ranking has improved so much maybe because of it.
I guess they are running sniffer bots...prelude to hacking attempts. And the alexa upward trend...? Maybe due to the referrer spamming attempt that you're experiencing.
