  • Most likely you aren’t. Those are probably the result of a bot. I would check your access logs too, and see if there’s anything suspicious there. I wouldn’t worry about those errors because your server will send back a standard page telling them the URI was bad, which means that those links didn’t give out any info.

    Thanks for your reply. This is first time I saw above lines with no error code like 403, 404 etc in Apache error log but today one comment was in pending to approval and I shocked because no one can post comments without registration. I don’t know how he post his comment without registration?

    Still I am worry about my blog security.
