While monitoring my forum's Who's Online this evening, I saw that IP 85.194.127.11 was crawling my site, attempting to send private messages to several of my members. As Guests don't have the ability to send PMs, the bot (I guess it was a bot) was being stopped.

When I clicked on the IP address to see what the host was, all it would return was Proxy 11. I went it to my cPanel > IP Deny Manager and banned that IP.

It was something that I haven't seen before (the Proxy 11 part) and thought I would share it with you all.
