#14 Re: Question: Preventing Apache referer spam? Posted by analogue (82.227.xx.xx) on Tue 30 Aug 2005 at 11:42 As for empty User-Agent headers I've honestly not noticed that. Most of the bogus referers I've seen have spoofed Mozilla, or IE. Out of the 127108 spammed referrers I got until today, 15128 were sent with en empty user-agent string. That's a nice first 10% filter ;)
