What is the google redirector.. who uses it and for what purpose? I've tried to find more about some log entries which have referral content similar to the following:
http://www.google.com/url?&q=http://example.com/
if you use the query part ("q="), it results in a valid page being served and that happened (on the example log entry.)
In 2006 a similar question was posted in the Google Adwords forum by someone else but there were no comments.
The IP address in my log belongs to <edit> and checking for things like what services are at the address and traceroute don't seem to offer any more insight into who or what generated the log entries.
