Re: [mv] Alexa.com and hammered sessions



******    message to minivend-users from "kyle@invisio.com" <kyle@invisio.com>     ******

My $.02 :

I just noticed this same robot hitting our server on
about 10 different domains running under Minivend
at the same time (within minutes) and I can tell you
it was putting a pretty good load on the server with
all of the Hammered session locks so I blocked
their ip's (there were 2 that I found)
entirely from the server.

As best I could tell, their robot was messing up the 
url which caused processes to keep running until
they timed out.
