Greetings

this might be the wrong place to post this question but my favourite
sidekick google doesnt seem to turn much on up this.

Recently I have been seeing alot of this in my logs

XMTFORCEDIALUP=TRUE

its mainly pages that dynmically create content eg

http://wwww.site.co.uk/asp/template1.asp?id=12&md=2&XMTFORCEDIALUP=TRUE

I'm not sure weather this is some kinda of exploit or just somones dialer
software adding this tag to each page it visists. I know there user agent
was MSIE 5.0 so I'm geussing it could be dialer software or a program
trying to and rip our content from the site eg a harvester. Any thoughts or
clues?

Regards

Doug
