[users@httpd] security threat?

["Andy J.M." <ap...@yourimedia.com>]

I found what looks like a successful unauthorized access to a forbidden
directory. In my Webalizer log there is a "Usernames" entry that states "2"
visits and five hits from username: thorm}x9e6

Google gives very little on this entry. Any ideas what it is, what is it
exploiting, and more importantly how to prevent the hack?

Also, what is the escaped hex?
