Also in Version 0.40, any search request will be denied unless the HTTP referer is set to match the domain the script resides on. Additionally, if the HTTP referer is a blank search command with no additional data, the request is denied.

Though it's not a huge deal, I've noticed right here on the main Aneuch wiki site that some automated scripts were hitting the search command with a bunch of random "spammy" type phrases. This could potentially lead to a denial of service condition. Since I've set the script to deny those requests with a 503 error, this activity has completely stopped.
