Why would I be finding this in a windows server log? Doesn't this have something to do with .htaccess? I'm finding it with the user agent "FunWebPoducts" which is who knows what.

It's in one of my server logs from yesterday....pages called were much to fast to be generated by a human AND since this is a "for the heck of it" site, not many humans would actually have an interest in it let alone want to stick around for 4+hours.
Haven't checked any of my other logs. I happened to find it looking for some hits I made via script late last night. The log was chucked full of "FunWebProducts" with the utmcsr string.

My logs also show the IP address of whoever is accessing the pages. If you can find it, do a WHOIS lookup on that IP address and you should be able to find out who or what was accessing your site.

Wanna guess where the IP originates from? Same location as the jerk who recently set up his own user group and tried to trash me in it. I suspect it was a pathetic attempt at a DDoS.
To whom it may concern in VA: If using GET for every URL in a sitemap would create a DDoS, sitemaps wouldn't have lasted very long.
But thanks for getting into the log. I could prove to be very helpful.

There is another "former" member who also tried to join a forum where I grab IP's, they match plus under 2 of his numerous profiles, he claims to live in VA.
I am sure I have numerous visitors that use the Google Toolbar and I have never ever seen log entries like this. utmccn=(organic)| utmcsr=google is just part of a string that is about 3~4 lines long when wrapped. I suspect the requests were done with a poorly created script or .exe, not a web browser.
