Wanadoo some scraping?

[incrediBILL]

OK, punny title aside, anyone else getting attacked from Wanadoo.fr?

This has been going on for weeks now so it's beyond the novelty phase and into the down right annoyance phase.

Here's what's happened so far today:

90.44.66.* requested 126 pages:
"Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 6.0; en-GB; rv:1.8.1.11) Gecko/20071127 Firefox/2.0.0.11"

The automated bot blocker is keeping it under control so no real damage but it's still ongoing.

When it uses that UA I always suspect someone is making masses of screen shots on a linux box which has been true many times, but it could be a garden variety scraper or spybot, hard to say.

I'm not sure if Wanadoo uses a rapidly changing IP pools like AOL or if this is a distributed effort, no clue about it.

Anyone else seeing this?

"Until" I expanded my RIPE denials 4-6 six years ago?
The wanadoo folks use to visit regular.

Unable to recall the last time they visited, however they'd only eat 403's in the event they returned.

I give up, I just suspended access to Wanadoo again.

Did it for a couple of weeks hoping whoever/whatever would simply go away and the minute I turned access back on the activity started right up again so enough is enough, I'll just punish all their customers for the actions of a few.
