OK thanks for that. It looks like you have located the issue. I did think about limiting the number of flags it's 250 at the moment. At least I won't get swampt with odd flags then. Then put it back to 250 when whoever is doing this gets board and goes away.

I've had 257 Visitors and 319 Counter views so far over the last 4 days, the norm is 15 to 20 over the same period. What's going on?
 

Over the last 4 days my views have jumped from around 4 or 5 a day to 40 or 50 a day. In all the years (13) I've never had that many hits. Is there some kind of problem, has my account been hacked?

Thank you that's great. But how can I  get the stat page to open when I tap on the flags as it did before.

Until a few days ago when I clicked on my flags on my website I would get a history report. Now all I get is the screen to set up a new flag counter. How do I get my history back?
