The idea (which I used bad examples to illustrate) is that some mainstream browsers make a series of requests for files which don't necessarily exist. Too many of those requests triggers limiting even though the user didn't do anything wrong. - Grant > Has anyone considered the problem of legitimate UAs which request a > series of files which don't necessarily exist when they access your > site?
