Yesterday i received a huge visit from 161.76.99.242 ip.

nex,
How about a UA?
Did the visitor come in on a referral?
Perhaps with a site related search?
Is UK traffic benficial to your website?
Did it read robots.txt?
Did it grab images?

All these in more are factors which assist a webmaster in making a decision as to what is beneficial or detrimental to your websites.

That i.p. is part of this net block:

route: 161.76.0.0/16
descr: University of East London
descr: Longbridge Road
descr: Dagenham
descr: Essex RM8 2AS
descr: UNITED KINGDOM
origin: AS786
mnt-by: JIPS-NOSC
changed: ****@***.*** 19951011
source: RIPE

Probably somebody downloading your site. Could be a user at this university, or more likely an open proxy server at that i.p. address. You might want to look at a spider trap. such as this: [webmasterworld.com...]
