URL I don't have


The Little Guy

Recommended Posts

I made a stats web site, and place the statcounter to view stats on the page of one of my sites (Tzfiles).

 

I am able to track page popularity, and one of the URL's that returns back to me are these:

 

http://{url removed}/?gclid=CPvEusy5i5ACFRIUagodQUiLtA

http://{url removed}/?gclid=CMbTxfi8i5ACFQ8nawodpHL8tw

http://{url removed}/?gclid=COSgrNrCi5ACFRUmawodoUVttQ

etc.

 

What are those? and where did/do they come from?

 

edit by redbullmarky URL's removed as linking to pornographic stuff.

search engines (or bots in general) don't store cookies, so the session ID needs to be passed across the URL. What you're seeing is the session_id(). it's an automatic (unless switched off) feature of PHP allowing sessions to be maintained for users without cookies enabled.
