Just something that came to my mind... Google caches the wikipedia pages just like we were doing. Are you blocking Google as well?

Thanks. That explains it. Also, the IP shown is not enciclopedia.tiosam.com nor ebaita.com: it is www.tiosam.com where I just included the English version a couple of weeks ago (http://www.tiosam.com/Ingles/encyclopedia ). The load was probably google indexing the pages in English, not what we already have cached for the Portuguese version. Anyway, I apologize for my ignorance. I'm downloading the dump and will start coding as soon as I find out how it works. Thanks guys.

No faked user agent string? So I suppose you were using "save as" in IE? Mozilla/4.0%20(compatible;%20MSIE%207.0;%20Windows%20NT%205.2;%20.NET% 20CLR%201.1.4322;%20.NET%20CLR%202.0.50727)

No, he was using the Microsoft.XMLHTTP object from ASP, as he indicated in a previous message. Said object identifies itself as MSIE and gives the .NET CLR version in the User-Agent.
