It looks like referer spam. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Referer_spam "Referer spam is a kind of search engine-targeted spam. The technique involves making repeated web site requests using a fake referer url pointing to a spam-advertised site. Sites that publicize their referer statistics will then also link to the spammer's site. This benefits the spammer because of the free link, and also gives the spammer's site improved search engine link placement due to link- counting algorithms that search engines use" What you are seeing in your logs: 83.30.48.99 - - [16/Nov/2005:23:44:18 +0100] "GET / HTTP/1.1" 200 1860 "http://puttane-grandi-tette.com" "Mozilla/4.0 (compatible; MSIE 6.0b; Windows NT 5.0; .NET CLR 1.0.2914)" Is a request for "/" on your server with "http://puttane-grandi- tette.com" being (claimed as) the referer.
