Flash doesn't always send referring information. It's pretty hit or
miss and depends on the browser being used, the alignment of the
stars, etc. Bottom line, you might have referring information come
from flash, but definitely DO NOT count on it.

What does your access log say, you should be able to grep for 404's, which
may give you the referrer.
You can always disable logging 404's as errors
server {
log_not_found off;
}
If you want to know more about the request, try ngrep

I previously posted a question about getting more information about an
error that we're getting in our Nginx log files. The error is as follows:
2009/01/15 11:47:57 [error] 15704#0: *689561 open()
"/home/spellcit/public_html/letters/.mp3" failed (2: No such file or
directory), client: 204.38.160.220, server: www.spellingcity.com, request:
"GET /letters/.mp3 HTTP/1.1", host: "www.spellingcity.com"
What I'm trying to figure out is which php or swf script (or maybe its not
a php or swf script) is actually making the call to request this
non-existent file.
Out of 25,385 errors in our log, 16,952 are caused by this issue.
One of the suggestions I got was to turn on the access logs, which I did.
In looking at this IP address at the access logs, this is what I get, which
unfortunately is not much.
204.38.160.220 - - [15/Jan/2009:12:31:26 -0600] 404 "GET /letters/.mp3
HTTP/1.1" 169 "-" "Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; U; PPC; en-US; rv:1.0.2)
Gecko/20030208 Netscape/7.02" "-"
I was thinking about creating a dummy ".mp3" file (or rewrite rule) to
capture traffic and get try to get some more info out of the header... just
a thought.
Any suggestions / thoughts would be very much appreciated.
