This IP is currently hammering Brugbart.com with requests, i have been trying to figure out what it is doing. It appears that the IP is trying to hide its hacking attempts among a bunch of normal requests. What i do not get, yet, is how they figured out the secret URLs on our server. Not that they are not secured, but the whole point in having them secret, is to avoid hackers hammering them with requests. I guess someone has used a browser plugin, which revealed these urls to third party. This IP likely belongs to whomever created that plugin. It will be interesting to see where my further investigation leads me.
Never mind this IP, it appears to belong to ia_archiver, so the strange requests we are having is likely the result of a aggressive browser plugin.
This ip tries to force all accesses and consumes server load. This is garbage. Blocked the track all that ****! Worms!
This one has been trying to hit my adm log in page!!! So many times a day... So many times a week!

DNSBL* - is a list of IP addresses published through the Internet Domain Name Service (DNS) either as a zone file that can be used by DNS server software, or as a live DNS zone that can be queried in real-time. DNSBLs are most often used to publish the addresses of computers or networks linked to spamming; most mail server software can be configured to reject or flag messages which have been sent from a site listed on one or more such lists.
WHOIS** - is a query/response protocol that is widely used for querying databases in order to determine the registrant or assignee of Internet resources, such as a domain name, an IP address block, or an autonomous system number. WHOIS lookups were traditionally performed with a command line interface application, and network administrators predominantly still use this method, but many simplified web-based tools exist. WHOIS services are typically communicated using the Transmission Control Protocol (TCP). Servers listen to requests on the well-known port number 43.
** Approximate Geographic Location - This is NOT the exact geographical location of the person/organization with the given IP address. However, this should still give you a good idea about the area/region where this person/orgranization is located.
