Here is some info about them http://www.globalsecurity.org/military/agency/army/isec.htm
So i did a bit of a search, and saw that it's happened to others, of course, and i did like what i saw written by one particular blogger, At Libertarian News..
So Here it is..
To My Army Pals At The USAISC
USAISC is the United States Army Information Systems Command.
I figure it is time to re-write this article since I seem to be getting many hits on this page from other people who are concerned about seeing the USAISC hitting their web sites. If you are a web site owner and have seen constant hits from the USAISC on your site, you are not alone.
The USAISC is an Army military network that extends to many military bases. So any person serfing your site out of a military installation may show up in your analytics as a USAISC host hit. I have been informed previously that the USAISC has been rolled into NETCOM, but apparently their servers are still using the old USAISC host name which is why it is showing up on your site analytics.
Now that I have your attention, I would like to bad mouth my former employers for a bit. The US government is a criminal institution of looting thieves that makes its living by holding a gun to the head of hard working private citizens. In keeping with their criminal ways, the NSA along with other DoD authoritarians, have decided to partner with various corporate interests to monitor US internet activity.
Many files detailing the illegal monitoring of US citizens internet activity by the NSA and other US terrorist organizations can be found here. These programs, as well as many others which we don’t even know about, are a consquence of the Patriot Act which basically removes the 4th Amendment from the US Constitution.
I find it wildly ironic that the US public is paying to have their own lives put under a microscope while real terrorist activity is supported and condoned by the US government.
The US intelligence community is a bunch of savage non-thinking robots who do the bidding of their political masters, regardless of what the US Constitution says.
Do you feel uneasy about domestic terrorist operations like the CIA and NSA monitoring your online activity? You should. The entire point is to terrorize you into keeping your mouth shut (end snips)
So, I'm sure most of the bloggers I know get special visitors like this..
Make sure to check the IP"s on your stat counters guys :)
Even in BLOGGER STATS, NO mention of the "visitors" I've had from Israel either, BUT according to statcounter I've had 17, in the past day alone.
Oh, and if any of you have feedjit, I'm not sure what is going on, but i've checked some other blogs and it looks like Feedjit is having some "issues"....
Has anyone else had this happen to them on their blog recently?

Excuse my ignorance; I only have the stats analysis which comes with my blogger account.
Do you or anyone reading this use or better still, recommend something different?
HI Kosta,
I use this one
http://statcounter.com/
as a bit of a back up for the blogger stats, but i've found that the blogger stats anaysis are not accurate as to WHO is visiting my blog, as i mentioned Israel never is shown on my Blogger audience even though i see quite a few page loads from there on stat counter.
There is also Sitemeter as well, but i'm not sure what the difference is.
I think it's better to have a few different means of analysing stats.
Thanks for your comment and regards
Cheers A13
HI There, If anyone is looking at my blog can you PLEASE let me know if the FEEDJIT thing is working on the page that you are viewing?
It doesn't seem to be picking up any visits, but my stats are??
Maybe it's a feedjit prob? but my innitial thought was that it had been hacked?
I also noticed after checking out some other blogs that i know have a feedjit, the same is happening.
Thanks in advance :)
A13
My feedjit stopped showing the pretty pictures last month or so and then I got hacked.
Badly.
I'm not chalking it up to chance.
And I've had plenty of Israeli hits on statcounter. Probably not all though.
Take care!
Hi Suzan, Yeah it's a bit of a worry.
WEeird though i'm only seeing page views on feejit that are Australian..no other countries...
that is strange isn't it.
Cheers A13
Hey A13. Your Feedjit widget appears to be functioning properly in my browser.
Wow, I just refreshed my page and there it is..all day it has been only showing Australian visits,a total of 9 in all and it went back over 9 hours ago..maybe it was a tech glitch? I did message their support service, so maybe that was it?
Better to be safe than sorry :)
Cheers Delbert :)

hi A13, your feedjit thingy is looking fine as of TUE am here, two towns away from Ashland, MA.
for years we've had these "minders" come in our stats also. one thing i have found interesting is that they almost always download pics and maps that i include in my posts.
and this is obviously not pleasant to contemplate, but it is reality. bloggers take a certain amount of risk. we really don't know how much risk because these may be simply intimidation techniques or they may have something else in mind.
In case you weren't aware, Suraci's blog has been removed again.
My blog got visited with 4 apparent hits from the USAISC though they all lasted the same time.
Took a pic and exited through comments.
The pic was of Obama and family at their inauguration in a collage of a black widow spider and a diagram of DNA , possibly rabbit,
The blind moggles
cheers
Hi A.P...Wow, TWO towns away..that is spooky.
maybe they are collating "evidence" that we can actually think for ourselves which seems to be an offence these days..who tf knows..not sure what they have done here at my blog..prolly laughed at it ;0
Cheers and regards A13
Hi Freethinker, Yeah, i'm aware..
seems he does this from time to time..i know that now..but not the reason.
I don't think it's sinister.
I'm sure he'll be back.
Cheers A13
Hi ferris, Yep, these visits didn't last long, and i'm not sure if they took a pic.. plus ditto on what i commented to A.P.
maybe they liked the redback 1st lady pic..i thought it was good too ;)
must get over to your place and re read your post it was very enlightening.
What is their M/O in comming to all these blogs anyway..and they are being paid for it the bludgers...WE are not.
Cheers and regards A13

Hi Penny, I was just checking my stats and i have had the mitre corp visit twice...spooooky.

My blogger stats consistently show 2 to 5 hundred more hits per day than statcounter. ???
Blogger shows a lot of false hits. Not long ago it showed that a Lucid Dreaming site had brought in close to a thousand visits in a week and it never had link to me. Things like that happen fairly often. I've wondered if they inflate the stats to try and get you to put google ads on your site and think that you might make a nickel or two.
statcounter is much more accurate IMHO.
One favorite recurring visitor of mine is from Tel Aviv and never looks at anything but my 9/11 archive. ???
Hi Kenny, Thanks for dropping by :)
Yeah, the stats are quite unreliable on boogger that's for sure, and i think the advertising angle you mentioned is why..
I have had some strange links to my blog via blogger and some countries seem "over represented"
Statcounter seem to be the most relaible that's for sure.
Yes we all have our "favourite" visitors don't we ;)
Thanks for your comment.
regards and cheers

Thanks A13 for the statcounter tip.
I've started using it a couple of days ago.
They not only like you, but they like those who like you..
but with a zero second visit length, they couldn't be to interested in what I have to say.
I have had one visit from them, no returns.

If you're interested; since I started using statcounter, I've had in total 13 clicks from your blogg site, 9 of which being from your homepage.
HI Kosta, I think headquartes is like a sexually transmitted disease..one person gets it..and then the love gets spread around :)
silly analogy but i like it!
I linked your blog to my sidebar, so that's prolly why you got those hits, i've popped in a couple of times and had a look see, and i like what you do there :)Great to see anothert Aussie in blogger land
And the cricket is on today Yay!!
Cheers A13
I got a hit from Indonesia last night that made Yahoo notify me to increase my security measures. Apparently they logged right into my email. No biggie, nothing in there. But then checking the log-in records there were almost daily log-ins, straight into my email, from MS? I got the IP address and looked it up. Headquarters, USAISC. Huh? I googled that. And got here. Hi, everyone.
Wish I could say I am surprised at this. I'm not. I'm prior military with a security clearance so I've already been through the security bleaching process, there isn't anything subversive they can find (although I am a liberal and that is just not fashionable in today's hate climate). But the consistent log-ins on an innocuous email account seems more sick and abusive than some security measure. I talk to my male friend on that one, hope they enjoyed the lame conversations we have. lol.
Who watches the watchers.
I am so sad the US has come to this, but NSA has such "fun" toys to play with now, and such ethical people using them (remember Gitmo), and who on this earth thinks they are safe anymore.
