odd files in Visitor logs

I don’t ever really refer to visitor logs in my installations. But today I decided to take a peak, and I saw this in my Vistor logs ?

/images/lmfi2.php /images/chosen.php and /images/autoload_classmap.php

What is that all about? there are no such files in the /images/ directory

Re: odd files in Visitor logs

Script kiddies trying to find (probably WordPress) vulnerabilities in your site. They’re using the Spray and Hope technique. Don’t worry about it unless they try a concerted DDOS attack on your site.

Re: odd files in Visitor logs

Yeah, on a beta site not publicised anywhere on a host that shows me the logs more prominently, there’s a near constant stream of attempts to reach certain files that are typical of wordpress installations.
