It is some script kiddle trying (and failing, if your httpd is up to date) to provoke buffer overflows in your web server by asking it for a very long URL. I get a few of these a week. Look in your /var/log/httpd/access_log for the word "SEARCH" and you'll probably find it.

Thanks for the info - there are indeed some quite strange urls being requested,

James.
