Hi
I have been keeping a close eye on the amount of "users online" on my forum recently. I average 100 visitors an hour but if I take a look at the "users online" it always says there are 150 users online or more. These numbers dont ad up to me?? I know some of these users will be spiders so I have installed an addon to identify spiders, But normally there are only 5 spiders online at any one time.
So 150 users - 4 users = 145 users online which still doesnt add up ?? When I click on online.php on my forum I see there are about 20% of "Guest" users on my forum are looking at "Subscribing to Thread" and getting the error "Access Denied" What are these users?? Are they spiders that are not being detected?
