Actually, I think Anthony
beat you to it . . .

It seemed to have been a bug where some linebreaks weren't
removed from a post many years ago... I can't recall the
post number, but the message had a long series of "000,000,000,000"
in it, which resulted in two bad posts following it. I
don't recall how it displayed, but my import program choked
on it.
Errr . . . hem, he said rather sheepishly . . .

10,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000 . . .
Not sure, but I think it was meant to be a Google.

. . . Secondly, and one that actually relates to me, I found
one entry with no user name and another with merely an
IP address as the name. On checking both profiles I found
they actually belong to me, so hey diddly ho I've added
them to my total. Please, no accusations of account padding;
looking at the totals you'll see it hardly makes a "ha'peth"
of difference . . .

There was some problems with data corruption before I
moved to the dedicated server; that might account for
some of the bad entries you saw (if you happened to note
the post numbers I could check it out).

Found them; posts 9087 and 9088. Looking at them again
though makes me think they're merely "echoes" of 9086
and should really be deleted, but would that cause too
much trouble?
Think I'm going to have to re-jig my stats spreadsheet.
