Help please!


 Does anyone know how to prevent thousands of views from one country-probably a spybot or some odd thing like that? It's giving me the creeps.
I've googled it and nothing is making sense to me about preventing that on my blog.

Thanks!

Sorry you have bot problems

It is strange that as long as Blogger blogs have been plagued with bots, Google doesn't catch and stop them.

There were 3 or 4 countries where bots originated from that showed up in my blog stats. The bots eventually faded away. There's probably an app that can help. The instructions I see online, too complicated for me to try.

Two or three years ago, I had a similar problem which is rather scary, for sure. Another blogger advised me to change my setting on comment location to Popup Window. Since then, I have had no further problem with this issue.

I have all kinds of problems with Blogger. Right now, I can't see any movies people share on their blogs. But I have never had a bot problem, at least not one I know about. But I use Linux and Firefox. Seems I don't have those kinds of problems.
