Strange search referals

\xba\xea\xb8\xae\xc6\xae\xb4\xcf

Hey everyone,

Yesterday my awstats shows "\xba\xea\xb8\xae\xc6\xae\xb4\xcf \xbd\xba\xc7\xc7\xbe\xee\xbd\xba" as being a search term that found my site over 2000 times!

Anyone seen this? It doesn't say which engine refered it. There are also a few other variations of that string appearing in my logs.

Hi MADMATT69
I plugged that sequence into a google search and found websites in Korean Language.
Some kind of conversion sequence is my guess.
Your site must popular in Korea possibly.
Check IP address in Ip locator to see if Korean website.
