I am seeing a lot of really weird errors in my logs, for pages that do not exist (and never have!), and they have the page TITLE (not URL) in the path. I have Munged the logs below, adding XXXX for anything that might be identifiable, so hopefully, you will get the idea...

[Mon Jan 26 06:43:46 2004] [error] [client 66.44.107.70] File does not exist: /hd/web/c/****/public_html/Noteable XXXX XXXX @ My Site Name_files/style.css
[Mon Jan 26 06:44:27 2004] [error] [client 66.44.107.70] File does not exist: /hd/web/c/xxx/public_html/Noteable XXXX XXXX @ My Site Name_files/banners.htm

Note that "/hd/web/c/xxx/public_html/" is the root directory, and that "Noteable XXXX XXXX @ My Site Name" is an actual page title, but where is the "_files" and "banners.htm" from?

Also, most often these are for banners.htm, this is the first I have noticed for one with style.css. Also, just as a matter of course, I do not use the extention ".htm" at all, I use ".html".

They come from all over- I ust get 100 or so a day... here is another:

[Mon Jan 26 08:45:38 2004] [error] [client 203.123.69.211] File does not exist: /hd/web/c/xxx/public_html/Real Page Title_files/banners.htm

Thanks!

Did that site recently change IP address?

If so, those queries could have to do with DNS propagation.

You mean MY site? Had the same IP since 1998- owned the IP block since 1996...
