[Opensim-users] Anyone recognise versanet.de or 94.135.203.122

[Diva Canto]

Ai's log shows a probe originating from the same IP address 
(94.135.203.122) every minute and a half. If this address is yours, 
please consider dialing this down. If I see this level of spam coming 
into my grids, I will block the originating IP.
