I've recently seen this in my referrer logs, http://www.c48.com
Like this:
http://www.c48.com/go/http://www.mydomain.com/index.php
All with different pages. I try to go to the site but it is https with login only. No signup link or anything. I googled it but could only get one meaningful result... it seems to be a proxy to bypass places that block some sites from being viewed.
I hope it is this, and not something unknown crawling around on my sites. Is anyone familiar with this website?

Set Search Time - A google chrome extension. When you search only results from the past year (or set time period) are displayed. Helps tremendously when using new technologies to avoid outdated results.
Bah, finally found a "signup link", and it had a disclaimer from MegaProxy.com. So, I went there.

So I guess it is a site that uses proxies. If that is what it is, I'll give them props for anonymity! So anonymous it's hard to find out what it is.Finally, a clientless Web SSL VPN solution that allows you to surf the web more securely and privately anywhere and at anytime from any Internet-enabled location without the complexities of software installations, third-party browser plugin-ins or re-configurations.

Ok, then due my site being in the same genre, it makes sense that people would be using it. Although after reading further I wouldn't mind using the service myself. For web browsing in general.

Could be. But from my understanding of honeypot, it would only catch suspicious activities. This seems to have a valid purpose.astions wrote:Could be a honeypot.
You can feel free to correct me. I'm not too down on what exactly a honeypot is. Given that it could be anything.

It is basically "setup" by umm... the three lettered groups of guys.... what the heck do you call them... ummm.... oh yea, FBI CIA NSA etc etc etc.
From the outside, you think and say to yourself, "Hmm this proxy is pretty darn Anonymous, provides a good cover, its located in [BLAH]." But in reality, your actions are being logged/and or monitored by those three lettered group of guys.
Someone correct me if I am wrong.
Again, this is what my understanding of Honeypot is.
