I often throwout bits of information in the hopes someone catches on to what I am trying to say. I do this because I do not want to demonstrate how these things are done and encourage people to follow suite.
But it would appear some are not understanding fully. In your stats whether it be aswats, webilzer or what ever. Install the auomatic whois, spamhouse or what ever you prefer. Through the course of the day The latest recorded visitors are recorded including spiders, webcrawlers, bot ect…
Next start highlighting the suspecious IP’s and click the whois or what ever to find out where it is coming from. If you determine it to be a threat block the IP or ISP.
I have mine set up so its on my desktop on the left hand side and is running constantly. I set the parameters to my liking and have it set to ping when something wierd comes through. I highlight click on my favorite program to check on the ip and find out who it is.
If I am anyway for the day I let the program run. when I return I retrieve the results.
So if they change proxy servers the program will note the change giving me a ping and I block the new ISP. This called program modification or can be viewed as a hack.
Another way is a little more work check and see the ip’s or isp’s entering your site, highlight the IP or ISP and click the whois that should be located in your toolbar. If you determine it to be threat block the Ip or isp.
Some more useful information is the Ip or ISP is a complete address telling you country, city, person, ports, computer, and a hole lot of other stuff. This you will have to learn on your own. I have posted numerous places to visit to figure this out.
This will not totally solve the problem of the scraper but it will slow them down. Some real answers are coming soon, the antiscrape script. greek39
