Scary or just what the doctor ordered?

About the HELO thing, I never looked at the HTTP RFC for more info, I just tried "telnet www.greenguysboard.com 80" and typed a HELO to see what happens. The output was the index of the site, which is why I decided my memory is not making jokes with me. However, I'm sure you're correct here as I'm sure that you're very experienced with what you're doing.

I made my conclusion based on the way other systems are logging that kind of information - counters. I know that web counters are getting tons of data using JS, which in the end produces that stats report for the site's usage. I thought you may be working in the same manner, mentioning the fact that I never have looked at your backend, so it's just an assumption.

Thanks for all the information you posted here. It's really interesting. I hope I have time to spend on protocol analysis in order to learn more about the net itself. I have some good experience with server/client side coding and thought I had it all explained in my head, it seems now it's not like this Thanks for your time Ray, I really appreciate the conversation.
