I'm seeing about 5 to 10 hits per minute from South African IPs.

Looks like they're hitting one of my direct link redirects from facebook. It shows them coming from multiple different referrers on facebook.com

To get it to stop I had to block 2 class Cs from the African Network Information Center

deny from 196.0.0.0/196.255.255.255
deny from 41.0.0.0/41.255.255.255

Anyone else getting anything similar?
 


cliqz, you could use mod_rewrite rules to redirect the request to another javascript file when the referring URL is his LP. In that js file, you could do all sorts of stuff, like change his affiliate links or redirect the visitor to another site.

Pretty much.... might wana find yourself a javascript coder and use that url to insert some highjacks.

The easiest way to do it without mod_rewrite is to change your folder/file name for your own LPs (making sure to update the js code url in your own LPs), then using the old folder/file name load up a javascript file (/tracking202/static/record.php) with

Code: 
window.location = "http://www.whateversiteyouwanthere";

Which would automatically change the site's location on their page upon load of the tracker url.
