looking at the who's online in admin, there is this IP address 38.99.82.229 that i noticed yesterady also, with a different ending IP number, that is adding items to its cart and like....browsing the site....no idea what its doing. lastnight/this morning i saw the same thing happening and it had like 1000+ in items in the cart.

anyone know what this IP is possibly doing?

Looks to me like a bot, but it really shouldn't be adding items to the cart.


The IP is out of California, USA (PSInet Inc) and appears to have a valid ASN.  I wouldn't worry about it.

If they're a nuisance, block their access in .htaccess.
