I have several unregistered visitors doing some really weird stuff on my site. Their hanging out in the guest book and your_account sections. Just as a security measure I run a reverse DNS on them and they return no valid reverse DNS. Now, should I ban these visitors or not? |

I'm not sure! all I know is that I see them going from guestbook to the YourAccount areas, not signing the guestbook or registering.  |

Ban them any way.
If they feel the need to take measures to hide their origins I would certainly be treating them with suspicion.
I can see only one reason why someone would be 'hanging out' in those two areas - trying to harvest user data (email address etc). |
