You can safely ignore them as described in the FAQ:

Yes, I understand, but I cannot find an explanation for the ebay.com reference
and return code 200 in that URL ?  They do not seem to be coming from the same
place or the same timestamp...  I know about code red and nimda, and get a lot of that
traffic, but I thought this was different ?

Just wanted to say thanks to Daniel, Jack & Joshua. It was indeed
the same issue, and 266 is the current size of my homepage.

I'll try to search the mailing list archive next time.

Yes.  As someone else pointed out, this question gets asked and answered
about once a month.  Even easier than the telnet technique is to check the
file-size returned in the request (266 bytes in this case).  If that is
the file size of your home page, then you are most likely safe.

This probably deserves a FAQ entry.  Anyone care to write one up?

Joshua.

Oops, didn't read the question, just read the last line and thought it was
another code red question :)

Yes, it is possible somebdy is using your apache server as a proxy.
Check to see if you have mod_proxy enabled in your configuraiton file
(loaded or compiled in and ProxyREquests on)
The easiest way to check it out is to connect yourself, using telnet
issue that request, and see if you get Ebay pages in return
