Error in reporting in apache log file (Apache 2.0.45)

hi

I am using Apache/2.0.45 on Linux. I see many messages of the
following type,

12.147.4.130 - - [11/Aug/2004:12:00:29 +051800] "GET
/companies/computers/software/img/blank.gif HTTP/1.1" 404 343
"http://indiafocus.indiainfo.com/companies/computers/software/"
"Mozilla/4.0 (compatible; MSIE 6.0; Windows NT 5.1; .NET CLR
1.1.4322)"

On http://indiafocus.indiainfo.com/comp...ters/software/ I
access http://indiafocus.indiainfo.com/img/blank.gif but I don't have
code that reads http://indiafocus.indiainfo.com/comp.../img/blank.gif


Is it the fault of the browser that is causing this problem? Or do I
need to change something in the apache configuration?
