Subject: What is this
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.

That (utmccn=(organic)|utmcsr=google ) are strings from a google
cookie.

Funwebproducts is an IE toolbar, user agent is added by this toolbar.

Uhh, where did you find the google cookie stuff?

Subject: Re: What is this
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.

Possibly a hijacked PC, with a buggy Trojan doing strange things with
part of a google cookie.

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.
