Looking at one of my site's Who's Online page, this popped up. It's very strange. What does this mean? Given the url, how are they able to access the site?
Here's what they were viewing:
Something like that would do:

Informative note.
The "who is online" page is not a crystal ball that tells you what exactly a user is doing.
Elk just takes the URL the user is visiting, splits it up a bit, tries to catch the "common" elements (action, sa, area, etc.) and guesses what the user
is supposed to be doing. Whether he is really seeing that particular action, or staring at an "you are not allowed" page, is not within the scope of the "who is online" page. ;)
Sure. You guys don't find it strange someone has tried to visit a url in that format? Some kind of monkey business afoot here?
Not particularly strange, it's the internet. lol
