I've just updated both my sites to 2.54 - thanks GIJOE (and contributors) for all the work you do on this module. I've also posted this query at Peak.ne.jp here

I've noticed several warnings in my Protect Centre, especially for my lost-doggies.com website. They read as follows :

26/11/2005 18:45:54      Guests      202.226.224.67 DataCha0s/2.0     CONTAMI     Attempt to inject '_REQUEST' was foundAttempt to inject 'GLOBALS' was found.

Now, the last two I am not too worried about because they're my own IP addresses and therefore known to be OK (although I am still confused as to what the warning means? I did not try to hack my own site?). But the first three do worry me. They were done on three seperate days at three seperate times?

Does this look like a deliberate attempt at hacking my site (for some reason) and what exactly were they trying to do? I do not understand "Attempt to inject '_REQUEST' was found. Attempt to inject 'GLOBALS' was found." I assume it is connected to the 'register globals' settings? Could thse be misc activities flying across the net and perhaps not directly aimed at my own site?

Thanks

Ted

Do a Google search on DataCha0s, your will find a lot. I would say yes.
