pugg09 Posted September 12, 2007 Share Posted September 12, 2007 I did a lookup on this in the forum, with no results. I have what looks like a perl bot trying to hack into my sites. I'm running a 1.? version of Apache on a Red Hat LAMP system. I've been told that all I have to do is change something called a "User-Agent" in my .htaccess file - I'm unable to locate that file on my box. Can anyone help me figure this out. I'm getting hit daily by this guy. Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/68947-please-help-libwww-perl-security-hacks/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
