They appear to be legit users, most of which come from Asia. It is possible that they are indeed in "non-english". However the repeat pattern just appears to show a long string of repeat garbage. I have gathered there are a lot of folks poking at the system by just using directory headings. Most of which appear to be for Windows stuff. Apache obviously is on top of it as it responds with a 404 error. There are a lot of these searches from comcast.net and attbi.com. I can't call them attacks as they just request directories and the like which do not exist withing apache and my system.
