If you can get a good list of what is requested, such as the one started above, and 'if' none of those pages exist, you can use modrewrite to redirect them to 127.0.0.1. :) Effectively sending the request back to themselves. That irritates them. Can be done on a per domain basis or serverwide for those regular attempts into what might exist on any server. For instance, I regularly see phpmyadmin references. I don't run that on any servers, but they come looking.
Thank you.
I've done it server-wide which extends protection to the virtual hosts.
