 * It may belongs to or it may not, anyway those request were blocked because access
   to the admin script admin-ajax.php is not permitted for bots. Most likely it’s
   a request from the yje Google Translate service. Perhaps a hacker tried to use
   Google Translate as proxy to probe the website for something like vulnerable 
   scripts. Actually, there is nothing to worry about. The plugin doesn’t prevent
   search engines from crawling normal, public pages and indexing a website.
