I may have an idea (sorry if someone already posted this, I didn't read all the posts on this thread). Maybe it's from google, or another search engine. When google sends in the web crawler thingys to a website, they often pick up links. Maybe somewhere that you even used to have a link at was put into google, and the crawler picked up your link, and it was published with common search words. Just a thought.....
Addon:Maybe some of the guests are web crawlers, like, proboards thinks they are guests.
Addon 2.0:I noticed that all seeing eyes posted something similar after I posted this.

They are not web crawlers. But thanks for the input.
They are back today.
So far as I gathered, the board was featured on some TV program yesterday.
I aint complaining. We are getting a lot of traffic.
I'm just curious.
Seems like this is no longer a real support issue.
I just wanted to know if Craig could get the referrers. I have statcounter installed, but the results are mixed.
It shows that most are coming from BLANK.
That means people are just typing in the addy.

I have found out where they are coming from and it's not cool.
I have a log that tracks where they are coming from but I'd rather not post it. It is not appropriate.
We need to take care of this somehow.
Craig, can I PM you the address to my statcounter so you can take a look ?

I see. But there isn't really anyway to 'block' them Like you say, most of them come from a 'blank' referrer anyways

Just so you are aware that this was not our doing.
I appreciate all the help.

Thanks Craig. Just so you are aware that this was not our doing. I appreciate all the help. Like i said in the PM, it looks like an ad campaign there or something, since the URLs vary. Just as long as they don't post anything like that on your board, you should be happy with the members it's bringing
