That is most likely a bot. There's nothing to worry about.

Well, messagelabs will

Well, messagelabs will likely be checking your site has no viruses/nasties.
I'd never heard of them , but a quick look on their webby pretty much verifies this.

To maintain their claim, they will be checking websites all the time.

By "China net" do you mean "chinanet.com"?
If so, it's very possible they are just "looking", either a human viewing, or some automated "thing" their site has for whatever reason.

But I would guess you actually meant "ChinaNet" which explains a load more...

ChinaNet is a public Internet service network operated by China Telecom. ChinaNet currently has more than 21 million broadband subscribers, with a total capacity of 4,000 Gigabits per second (Gbps), accounting for more than half of China's bandwidth for Internet services.

As your site will be registered with search engines etc, it's reasonable that some people out of the 21,000,000 ChinaNet internet users have found the site by accident.

As long as your server logs (etc) don't show any malicious activity, like many password attempt failures etc, then I would say there is nothing to worry about.

BTW, being overly cautious or suspicious is a good thing when coding or managing a website. "Never trust anyone" is the golden rule. I know it sounds anti-social and a lack of faith in the human race, but on the internet you only need to let your guard down a bit and the brown stuff can hit the windy swirly thing at a great rate.
