Title: Baidu back?
Post by: DJ Omnimaga on December 11, 2011, 11:26:54 pm

As you know, a lot of bots or people got dynamic IP addresses, and this could mean that the Baidu bot you banned recently could eventually return.

Well... I wonder if it actually returned already? Because in the past week or so, the online user count seems to have slowly been going up again, even though we're supposed to be in a quieter period (and in fact it's quieter).

You might want to check that out, in case this cause site slowdowns again. :P

Baidu is the worst of the chinese spambots. It's been acting up lately and eating gigabytes of bandwidth.

It's a chinese search engine spider, but poorly coded and it almost was DDoS'ing Netham45's server. O.O

Oh jeez. Is it possible it might have gotten access through a computer that has it running in other programs? Because my parents installed a lot of chinese crap that I dont understand. If it is then I'm not going to use that computer anymore.
