I have had a huge upsurge on traffic requesting my homepage (ie GET /)
on my webserver in the last couple of days. I know others have also
experienced this.

things i have noticed in the logs:

95% come from machines advertising as "Windows 98"
All are requesting HTTP/1.1 (rather than 1.0)
fairly random source addresses & domains, very very few ever repeated
they all simply ask for / rather than /index.htm[l]
a lot seem to be dialup or dsl or cable customers of swbell.net,
verizon.net, pacbell.net etc.

(I know all this can be faked, I am just going on what the apache logs
tell me)

anyone aware of what is happenning?
