Great!  Mouse movement or any DOM events are the only way I can see to separate this traffic from any other sort -- there's no server side way that will not eliminate good traffic too (people seem to ask over and over about this, or seem to think there must be  --- there' not, and therefore nothing any hosting company can do about this.)

netmeg3 please let us know if you find anything out about DOM events -- in particular does this bad traffic ever exhibit click or mouse movement events?
