    Default Blocking Apache requests?

    I've all of a sudden started getting a ton of Windows worms trying to infect my site. It's mildly amusing, except that one URL (I forget which worm this is from) requests an incredibly long URL, beginning:

    /\x90\x02\xb1\x02\xb1\x02\xb1\x02\xb1\x02\xb1\x02\xb1\x02\xb1\x02\xb1\x02\xb1\x02

    Anyway, the problem is that this URL goes on for pages and pages. In IE, looking at Latest Visitors is annoying, but in Mozilla, it drives me NUTS because Mozilla won't force it to wrap, so it's all one single line, making me scroll incredibly far side-to-side to view other columns in the table.

    I got bored and 'touch'ed default.ida one day, to satisfy the worms that kept looking for it. But I can't exactly create this monstrosity.

    Is there an easy way to exclude this garbage from my logfiles, or at least from showing up in Latest Visitors?
