greyhares on "[Plugin: Wordfence Security] Hackers looking for a folder /-/-/-/-/-/-/-/-/-/-/ ?"

For some time now in the Wordfence "Pages Not Found" logs I've seen a fairly constant stream of attempted hits on my site like "www.mysite.com/-/-/-/-/-/-/-/-/-/-/"

(i.e. on a non-existent folder '-' x ten levels deep)

The hits (apparently) come from all the 'usual suspect' places and many of the referring IP addresses are associated with dangerous sites as classified by McAfee Site Advistor.

I can't find any references anywhere to a known vulnerability being exploited here, so has anyone else seen this behavior, and even better have an explanation for it?

Thanks
