Several of my servers have been swept by awstats attacks in the last
three days from four addresses. The attack script in common use seems
to have a distinct signature in that it has a double // in GET //cgi-bin
at the start of the URL. such as

210.119.247.4 - - [09/Mar/2005:08:33:57 -0800] "GET
//cgi-bin/awstats.pl?configdir=|%20id%20| HTTP/1.1" 404 217

Attacking hosts:
216.145.9.34
210.225.88.43
210.119.247.4
206.61.118.236
