Kintiskton LLC

I received a big traffic spike a couple of days ago, and my logs say 94 unique visits came directly from a network named Kintiskton LLC. Obviously it is some kind of spider. Upon further research, it appears to be a company looking for trademark infringement. Unfortunately their excessive crawling is a nuisance for those of us who use our traffic data. Another blogger posted this suggestion – block the IP addresses of the Kintiskton spider using your .htaccess file like so:

Deny from 65.208.151.112/29

Sounds like a plan. I’ll see if it works to keep these pests away.

    I received a pile of hits from “Kintiskton Llc” today.. very strange. I read on a forum that it was a Bing. Maybe, maybe not…
