I was just browsing my website's statistics (awstats) and at the very bottom is the section that shows "404 Page Not Found" errors. The number of hits seemed a bit high so I looked at the pages that were trying to be accessed.
Here's a partial list:

Obviously none of these files and directories even exist, so something is "shooting in the dark" so to speak when they visit my site. Is this the sign of a hacker or a some sort of evil bot trying to gain access? Could they potentially determine the correct (administration) directory and cause havoc on my site?
