[LUG] Corrupt entries in Apache access log



Hi all,

Keep getting entries like the following in my Apache access log. Does anyone 
know what this SEARCH method is, and why is it creating such a mess in my 
logs?

I've only included a very small selection of what's in the log entry. 
Basically it's just loads of garbage then a load of HTML.

Can anyone shed any light on what's happening?
