Looking at my webstats today, there are several visits from:

1. client-82-2-xx-xx.brnt.adsl.virgin.net
2. client-82-3-xxx-xxx.glfd.adsl.virgin.net

etc...

Now i would have just thought these were ppl on Virgins ADSL service...but...

My webstats also said they were using a proxy:

The first client was on no proxy, but the second client was using proxy 62.252.0.7. - One of ntl's.

This is were i investigated more..

A lookup on both clients hostnames/IP's shows this:

Code:

client-82-2-xx-xxx.brnt.adsl.virgin.net (82.2.xx.xxx) 

82.2.48.0 - 82.2.63.255
NTL Infrastructure - Brentford

and

Code:

client-82-3-xxx-xxx.glfd.adsl.virgin.net (82.3.xxx.xxx) 

82.3.224.0 - 82.3.255.255
NTL Infrastructure - Guildford

Whats the deal?
