Hi!

Yes, I believe in that too, specially because it happens in a burst (a few hundred exceptions) and then stops. It usually happens from IPs that are using the service normally, so I believe it's some kind of buggy plugin for Firefox, or some crazy virus/bot/evil-ware/whatever- the-crap-is-that-screws-up-90%-of-the-windows-machine-on-the-internet. Most probably runs on a client machine, it's not a hacked server.

Miguel,

I have also noticed this in our error logs, but it happens so infrequently that I just ignored it (presumed it was a bot, or something probing for a common security hole or something)
If you discover otherwise, please let us know.


Thanks,

Mark

Hi!

Just to make it clear, I am NOT able to reproduce this. I'm just watching this on the live production servers and reading the logs. So it may be something else masking as Firefox.

Hi!

Has anyone had seen problems with requests that (theoretically) come from the Firefox browser where the string "Pr" is added to a hidden form field? I've seen this in the past, and I'm seeing it now. It's causing my stuff to crash because that field is supposed to have a number, so parseInt crashes. I'm getting stuff like "12526795139Pr" where it should be "12526795139".
