nonilady

hi , today when i check the links of visitors who visited my site i found a link of this particular site that says entry page = smugmug co branding, see sample 2 attached, when i click on the entry page link, it takes me to secure login page, it is unusual for me to have that kindda of link...the usual link would be like this , see sample 1 (attached)which is entry page = get connected to ..... (in which when i click on the link it will of course take me straight to my site) so am a bit curious and worried and wondering whether someone is trying to log onto my site?

please advise

thanks

They can't log in, looks like a bot, url guessing to me. I'll ask about it.

One thing to check: do you have a toolbar, like google or alexa toolbars, or some other? They can act like a spider and try to get to such links....

Would a smugmug user clicking on the login link while viewing someone else's smugmug pages cause something like this?

Yes, that could do it, too.
