gollark: Weird, a connection from Poland 13 minutes ago.
gollark: Did someone just try to access that about 60 seconds ago?
gollark: I have it set up now to redirect "/cgi-bin/ViewLog.asp" ones to osmarks internet radio™.
gollark: Sadly, no more bots have decided to send me requests.
gollark: Wait, I have a fun idea: I could edit the server configuration so when someone requests one of the exploit paths/has a botnetty user agent, it sends them the infinitely long osmarks internet radio™ stream instead.
