haven't got a single reply (yet), so tempting to re-issue my query since I 
still get such strange logs on my web server, like the following : 

59.59.104.62 - - [13/Mar/2011:18:38:24 +0100] "GET http://5566.net/ HTTP/1.1" 
200 240 "-" "Mozilla/4.0 (compatible; MSIE 4.01; Windows 95)"

My web server says that with a HTTP-code "200" it has succesfully fullfilled 
the requested URL "http://5566.net/"; ?!
