Whats this?

[aarf]

Hi, anyone know what the below means, I do not have a file of such on my system, is he attempting a hack or something? This is twice he has been on my server and twice the same documentation from server. I have changed IP as well, any ideas.

Looks like a yahoo.com spider was trying to or did index your site.

Thanks Maverick, I did do a Trace Route as well and noticed that, just didn't understand what it was doing, it looked like it was trying to "GET" a file, however, if it did indeed index the site, it would have been for a search engine?

There is nothing on the opening page other than the login jibberish.  Thats probably when it ended so quickly, only seen 2 accounts of this since I started running the site for family, and it was in the last week.

Thanks again sir.
