Can you check your logs and look at the user agent for what's making the connections? Could it just be a search engine crawler indexing your pages? You can control access, usually, via a robots.txt exclusion file. If it's someone else mirroring your site for some reason, some programs that do this will obey robots.txt settings. If it's happening a lot and degrading the performance of your web server, then it may be a DOS (denial of service) attack. By the basic description you gave, it doesn't sound like an attack. -TG ----- Original Message ----- From: robert <roadtested@xxxxxxxxx> To: PHP <php-general@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> Date: Wed, 21 May 2008 08:54:20 -0700 Subject: page suck attack > Hi > Every so often my site is "attacked" in which all URLS on my site are > retrieved in the span of minutes.
