I was given this .htaccess file by my hosting provider. I have tried different .htaccess file but it gives me 500 error not even loading my website.

Answer 1

The word "scan" in the Alexa User Agent string is what is being blocked. Delete “scan|” from the 2 User Agent Filters shown below in the root .htaccess file.

RewriteCond %{HTTP_USER_AGENT} (havij|libwww-perl|wget|python|nikto|curl|scan|java|winhttp|clshttp|loader) [NC,OR]

RewriteCond %{HTTP_USER_AGENT} (;|<|>|'|"|)|(|%0A|%0D|%22|%27|%28|%3C|%3E|%00).*(libwww-perl|wget|python|nikto|curl|scan|java|winhttp|HTTrack|clshttp|archiver|loader|email|harvest|extract|grab|miner) [NC,OR]
