Microsoft Data Access Internet Publishing Provider Protocol Discovery

[betelnutboy]

Hi,

I am a little concerned by a browser type listed in my web logs. "Microsoft Data Access Internet Publishing Provider Protocol Discovery" is listed, but I have no idea what this is. I use Frontpage 2003 and Access 2003. Can anyone offer some advice? I'm just concerned that someone is snooping.

Thanks,

Mike

This is the browser type used when you try to access your site using Frontpage client or any MS office application. Since you are using them as your authoring software, I don't think you should worry about it.

Thanks Danny. I've seen post on other boards about it being some type of hack. There's really nothing to steal anyway (yet), but I wanted to make sure it's not a potential problem.

Thanks again,

Mike
