it looks like www.oversitesentry got probed yesterday over 46506 hits.
(normal is in the thousands or hundreds, not tens of thousands. and it all originated from ‘tryal.ru’
I suspect it is a malware intrusion attempt, or a serious probe for passwords or something.
I check my logs regularly, so I noticed this was very unusual not just that there was a high amount of activity, but that the highest connection to the site was an IP which is not mine… (since I am on the site modifying all the time).
Also the website index page did not get 40000+ hits. this seems more like a specific port opening attempt.
One way to know who is doing something to you is to use a command line tool to check the offending site
i went to the site ‘tryal.ru’ with wget, and it pointed me to ‘aldgames.ru’. (a wordpress site)
But the real info came now that I searched with Google to ‘aldgames.ru’
Yes when checking virustotal it means that aldgames.ru is a malicious hosting site. If you can blacklist the sites.
Interesting what one finds in the logs if looking 🙂
